Paralympics Marathon

Thousands lined the streets to see the paralympics marathon. It was not an easy course, Shelly Woods of GB who took silver described it " It was such a tough race. It was one of the hardest marathons I’ve ever done.” Shirley Reilly of the US took gold and Sandra Graf (pictured here) of Sweden took bronze.

Did you watch the closing ceremony last night?
What a fantastic finale to a fantastic games.

We aren't ready to let the games go yet and a couple more events are scheduled

Today is "our greatest team parade" a celebration for the athletes of the Olympics and Paralympics.

Then in November the British Olympic Ball.
