Hunter Woodhall wins Paralympic gold, celebrates with Olympic gold medalist wife #paralympics2024

Hunter Woodhall leaned forward, eyes fixed on the finish line at Stade de France.

It wasn’t just another race. This was the culmination of years of relentless training, a moment of destiny. As he surged ahead Friday in the final strides of the men’s T62 400-meter sprint, crossing the line at 46.36 seconds, Woodhall felt the weight of his journey lift, replaced by the overwhelming thrill of winning a Paralympic gold medal.

“This is my first gold, it’s my first time winning any major championship, and they couldn’t pick a better one,” Woodhall said after the race.
