Médaille de bronze au Champion Paralympique AMGOUNE Mohamed en 400 m T13

going into the t13 men's 400 meter Final in advance Oscar is coming up as is David Weir toward the end they're the two of the last three events on the evening this is the the least visually impaired of the visually impaired classes if that can possibly make sense we ought to just give people an idea of when Oscar is coming up because people loads of B watching in South Africa and they want to know that so they can get the kettle on uh he's in the final it's at 96 9:15 UK time uh I can't remember if South Africa's an hour or two hours ahead at the moment but it's in about 15 minutes it'll be on so if you want to uh if you need to go to the lure if you need a cup of tea do it now cup of Roy Bosch uh whatever you're going to have a drink go and get that and you'll be on in the next 15 minutes so let's have a look at the runners and riders in this next event who do you fancy in this one in this one I would look toward the uh uh wow I I would I was actually say Muhammad AMU amug Muhammad AMU amuan thank you that's how I'd say amuan I think from Morocco from Morocco because he's got the the best season best 14 49.0 for and the rest are all over 50 right and he actually has the Paro olympic record which he ran here which means that he's running really fast here there he is so there he is Mohamad amuan I don't know why the Moroccan wearing orange so it's not a color I would associate with Morocco it's I almost feel like the Dutch have kind of patented that as their color it's hard to take it yeah GRE green I was associated with Morocco J nassa Algerian record holder 50.4 five his qualifying time which reminds us that everybody in this event is a hero in their own country another thrown in to see if who can be the hero in the world yes and often in these finals and you you'll see if you know people coming last and second last but they're still often the fastest runner in their country if not their region continent right exactly there's the American marath price 22 years of age making up the field in Lane nine so we're looking at lanee five uh muhamad Amun of Morocco 23 to be the man to lead us through here but to watch out for the Russian in Lane six as well zv silence descends over the Olympic Park in London for the men's 400 meters t13 final all running lanes and who's going to be the first one to show in this it's all pretty even on the inside Lane the Russians going BR labs in but making his way up through the field is Zev also of Russia and the Moroccan at the moment is quite a long way back it's Zev of Russia in Lane six and also labin of Russia on the inside late doing very well and the Moroccan not showing at all at the moment he looks pretty comfortable right now I'd imagine he's going to turn the Jets on when he comes off of this turn right here so at the moment it's Russia 1 and two Morocco third and he does look very relaxed and he's coming through now but he's not going to catch labin I don't think labin of Russia in lane two is in the lead verev uh he's going to get the silver and the Moroccan is going to have to be content with bronze now he looked very relaxed the Moroccan with his style there but he just uh it looked like he almost looked as though he was running in 800 M and he he was waiting for the second lap he did he did though you could see that he was he pulled his hamstring as he came grabbed his hamstring as he came across the Finish Line so maybe there was an injury worry that he was trying to stay well within not stretch things too far not to take anything not to take anything away from labson who is absolutely ecstatic lying on the track here well he'll have to get up because we've got Oscar pastorious coming on shortly so you'll need to get off the track congratulations though on your gold fell he's excited and and absolute exhausted it looks like as well though though he's recovering quickly and applauds the crowd or he's giving it big looks quite a character to the Russian just telling us which country he's from thank you very much for clearing that up he's Russian and happy to be competing for his country there's nothing like putting on the colors of your country you compete all over the world come to an event like this and put the colors of your country on and it changes the perspective you're you're competing for your friends your family but also for a whole lot of people you don't even know what was that like for you Chris the first time you pulled on the Stars and Stripes what was it like uniform did it have the stars and stripes on it somewhere it did not at that point no the first one first one that I had did did not have any stars and stripes on it but it still was the US Uniform and that was that was in in the track I definitely had had more stars and stripes and I think in skiing we we didn't and the first one that I wore was the skiing one and we didn't but it did say USA on it very important yes very much so so you're watching coverage of the London 2012 par Olympics the track and field action with me Jeremy Nicholas and Chris wadell is our American summarizer who's how many how many Golds did you win at parp five five Golds just the five five Golds only got five Golds so I think we can qualify him as an expert did you win did you win more medals at the Winter or the summer more at the winter yes 12 in the winter and one in the summer so there's a little bit of a disparity there
