David Weir's a legend. He's won five London Marathons - and
finished an incredible third in 2010 with a flat tyre on his
wheelchair. He's won loads of medals, including two golds, a silver
and a bronze at the Beijing Paralympics - a nice addition to his
haul from the 2011 World Championships and 2004 Paralympics. And to
top it all off, he's been awarded an MBE for his achievements. A
true sporting hero.
