Para triathlete Lauren Parker ‘is unbreakable’ during Paralympics 2024

"VAN" (Olympic Desk - Paris, France - 03.09.2024) :: Australian Para triathlete Lauren Parker has a back tattoo that says: “She is unbreakable” and on day five of the Games she lived up to that mantra claiming Paralympic gold.

The 35-year-old won silver at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games after the USA’s Kendall Gretsch pipped her for the top gong by a second in a thrilling sprint finish.

The disappointment lit a fire in her belly and Parker came to Paris on a mission to go one better.

“It’s absolutely amazing. I can’t believe I was able to do it... it’s been a long journey to get here,” Parker told reporters.

“I couldn’t be more proud”
