Favourite Olympic / Paralympic sport
When it comes to Olympics/Paralympics I'll literally watch all the sports, I love it! If I had to pick a favourite it's probably swimming (helps when Australia is usually very strong in swimming!) and the Athletics is always good to watch.

Favourite Olympic / Paralympic sport
Impossible! My favourite sport is one with a passionate crowd watching, whether in the stadium, out on the streets for road events, or watching from home, pubs or live sites – the enthusiasm is infectious!
