Beijing Paralympic Games 2008 - We Did It Again!


Beijing - South Africa's Natalie du Toit has won her fourth medal at the Beijing Paralympic Games in the 400m swimming medley in a time of 4:23.81. 

As you should know Du Toit, has already won the 100m butterfly, 100m freestyle and 200m individual medley.

Another gold medal went to Kevin Paul, in the Men's 100m Breaststroke SB9 final, slashing more than four seconds from his personal best time today. The 17-year-old Grey High School pupil broke his own world record – set in the morning heats – when he won the final in 1:08.58 and his face mirrored his disbelief as he saw the scoreboard showing the time.

The medal standings has changed somewhat, with SA now in 8th place, with 17 medals in total: 12 gold, 1 silver, and 4 bronze! Lets keep them coming!
