A Grim Fairy Tale

Derek Redmond

Barcelona Olympic games 1992, the 400 meters sprint line up was getting ready. The line up consisted of the British athlete Derek Redmond, who was considered a favourite to win a medal.

The race began and  Derek had a good start, 150 meters into the race, Derek felt a scaring pain. In agony, he fell to the ground with a torn hamstring, but he was not willing to give up and was determined to finish the race, Derek got up and taking up all the pain limped ahead. During this time a person from the spectators broke through the security and came to Derek's side. It was his father.

" You don't have to do this," he told his son

" Yes I do, " came the answer

" Well then, we are going to finish this together," together the father and son continued

Shortly before the finish line, Derek's father let him go to complete his race, receiving a standing ovation from a crowd of over sixty five thousand.

When you don't give up, you cannot fail
