2. The Paralympic team of Russia took part in the games in
Vancouver and won 38 medals for 32 sportsmen! It is really
exciting, isn`t it? There were 12 gold, 16 silver and 10 bronze
medals. Lukin says, that there is one huge distinction between
olympic and paralympic teams: «The Olympiad is the
demonstration of the strength, and the Paralympiad is the
demonstration of the power of the spirit and the will to win».
3. Vladykina is 24 years old. Olesya was a
typical girl, but she had an accident one
day, so she hasn`t got one arm now.
But, in spite of all the difficulties and
sufferings she continued her exercises
in the swimming pool! She is a very
brave woman. Moreover, Olesya is the
Sochi 2014 Ambassador, and she often
visits children who want to be
Paralympic
champions.
Glamour
magazine honoured her as the Woman
of the Year in 2012.
4. We are sure that Olesya Vladykina is not just a sportswoman, she is a

Many people in our world have a lot of chances to have a very
interesting and extraordinary life, but they don`t use them. Fortunately, it
is not about Olesya!

goals and never gives
up. Olesya is the world

6. We admire Olesya Vladykina and she
