While representing their country in the 2012 London Olympics will be a badge of honor for all the athletes, none will be as proud as Oscar Pistorious - A 26-year old South African who is often called the blade runner or the fastest man on no legs! That's because unlike most runners, Oscar does not compete with his natural legs, but, with carbon-fiber artificial limbs.

          What an amazing guy! I greatly admire his perseverance. It is very uplifting to read about somebody who has overcome his disabilities. I surly thought somebody without legs would be slower than an able-bodied person. I am Korean and I got the opportunity to watch him compete in Dae-gu recently. Although he did not win, he is enough to make an impression on me and many other people in the stadium. Also his circumstance makes me think how lucky I am. His hardship has made me realize how easy my life has been. When he was running, I was wishing he would win. I hope he does well in the 2012 Olympics.

                    I do feel bad, but I don't think that anyone can help it. I am happy though. He will be in the Olympics this year!;):);)
