Sam S Netherlands v China in the seated volleyball.
It's been an amazing 16 days watching the very best in the world. Their dedication, passion and determination has been inspirational, but in 16 days another group of fantastic athletes take to the stage and the Challenge is to tune into the London 2012 Paralympic Games, get excited and inspired by their achievements just as you have done for the past two weeks.

“What a blast, never thought I'd get the opportunity to sing the Irish National Anthem in the Olympic Stadium, go Jason! Off to the closing ceremony tomorrow and helping the athletes leave the village on Monday and Tuesday.”

Claire Boo L WOW... Is all I can say, what an absolutely incredible Summer of Sport. So proud of what my beautiful country has achieved in the staging and the medals. So many highlights, so many tears (shed by me), so many inspiring stories, so much admiration, so much to be proud of.
encouraged this.
Claire Boo L I am still overwhelmed by the the events of the Paralympics.... I think I ll complete this challenge when I can actually put it into words more eloquent than just saying "awesome"
Gary B Is it just me, or did anyone else think the Paralympics closing ceremony was better than the Olympics one?
Louise F The Olympics was a wonderful warm up to the real act - the Paralympics! Hubby and I have become completely Lympic-obsessed, it's all we've watched and talked about for weeks now. Not looking forward to the withdrawal symptoms that will kick in after we've seen the Lympic Parade in London tomorrow.
