With Danny Crates: Olympic athlete, TV presenter, pundit, commentator, high performance coach
At just 21 year old, Danny tragically lost an arm in a car accident whilst on holiday in Australia.
What followed is a remarkable story of resilience, endurance, passion and determination.
Because by the time he’d retired from the track Danny Crates had won every possible major title in Paralympic athletics, his trophy cabinet boasting World Indoor and European titles, silver in the 4X400m relay, an 800-meter world record at the Athens Games and the ultimate prize – a gold medal at the 2006 World Championships.
But, having been bestowed the honour of flagbearer for the Beijing 2008 Olympics, a turn of events would transform Danny's mindset altogether.
So what drove Danny to succeed?
What shapes the mindset of an Olympic athlete?
What are Danny's three non-negotiable behaviours and characteristics for success?
And what is he grateful for?
