Andy Lewis

Andy wanted to be in the Parachute Regiment, But only three days before he started training, He was involved in a bad motorcycle accident, Which eventually lost his leg, problems taking. Determined to keep fit, he took up many sports, And turned his hand to flying by a scholarship, Joined Lydney Boxing club, had good reports, ‘Cos he’s from there, and he felt brinkmanship. The London 2012 Paralympics inspired him on, To take up the skill of triathlon, three long events, In 2015 he came 3rd twice, Worlds, Paratriathlon, Then in 2016 he came 1st thrice, Rio’s his cents.
