This summer Chris Osborne attended the Special Olympic Provincial Games in Windsor Ontario. There were over 600 athletes competing and this was the first year that the Guelph track and field group competed at the Provincial level.
Chris won four medals.
Gold- 400 meter relay
Silver- Shot Put
Silver- 100 meter
Bronze- Running Long Jump
To prepare for the competition Chris trained every Wednesday (rain or shine) with the team. Chris also did daily home training that included running, push-ups, chin-ups, trampoline work, free weights and biking. Chris gets up early every morning to train.
I asked Chris what it felt like to win the medals and he said, “I feel like a winner!” He said that winning made him feel like his heroes Jim Carey and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
For any one who has a dream Chris has this advice, “Go for you dreams! Have fun and do your best!”
Congratulations Chris!
