00:00It is day three of the Paralympics, we got two more gold medals and I'm here to tell

00:06you all about them.

00:07First up, we have Amanda Reid, who at velodrome got us another gold, our cyclists are killing

00:12it.

00:13She successfully defended her gold medal from Tokyo 2020, where she was the last person

00:18actually out in the velodrome during her time trial sprint.

00:21She knew exactly what she needed to do and she did it beautifully.

00:24She was cool.

00:25She was calm.

00:26She was collected.

00:27She got herself a gold medal and good on it.

00:28She's a very talented multi-athlete as well, so you're on the snow slopes and in the pool

00:31sometimes.

00:32Meanwhile, in the women's doubles table tennis, we won gold there as well.

00:37The Australian team beat Chinese Taipei on three sets to one in a best of five match.

00:42Very exciting for them.

00:43Unfortunately, with the highs, so too come the lows and Jared Clifford perhaps is our

00:47biggest low for the night.

00:50So close to getting a bronze medal in his 5,000 meter run.

00:53He's a visually impaired athlete and he must be tethered to his guide at all times.

00:56Unfortunately, in some of that excitement towards last streak, he came untethered and

01:01has such been disqualified.

01:03He is absolutely gutted and we are gutted for him, but what an amazing effort all the

01:07same and same true to all of our bronze and silver medalists overnight.
