Derek Redmond

Derek Redmond was in a running race in 1992.

He is from Britain.

He ran so fast that his hamstring snapped He was in so much pain but he didn't give up he carried on even though he hurt his leg he hopped on one foot.    

Dad came and saved the day by helping him get to the finish line on the way dad was pushing other people away so Derek could finish the race.
