Archery Competitor to Compete in Paralympics while Seven Months Pregnant
A British archer, Jodie Grinham, is set to compete in the Paralympic Games this month while being seven months pregnant. Grinham, who already has a toddler, will be the first Paralympian to compete at such a late stage of pregnancy. She is determined to achieve her personal goals, regardless of any statements she may inadvertently make. With a congenital condition affecting her limbs, Grinham has adapted her training and technique to overcome challenges. Despite the uncertainty surrounding her pregnancy, Grinham is prepared with backup plans and is optimistic about her performance.
