Claudia Nicoleitzik at London 2012

An hour after winning the Bronze in the Women's 100m - T36 I was very fortunate to spot, recognise and have a quick chat with Germany's Claudia Nicoleitzik as she and her cohort were heading out of the Olympic Park...

Claudia competed in the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing, and the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London.

In 2008 she won a silver medal in the women's 100 metres - T36 event and a silver medal in the women's 200 metres - T36 event.

Prior to this medal Claudia had a won a bronze medal in the women's 200 metres - T36 event.

A thoroughly decent person with a calm and affable manner, I'm delighted for her success and wish her the very best for the future.
