Harriet Lee

Harriet has Beckwith-wiedemann syndrome, Something which shortened her right side, And she also his difficulty with blood sugar, But she’s a dog lover of Baya Bear and Bow. Born in Huntington which is a market town, In Cambridgeshire, on the 6th of May 1991, She’s good at the breaststroke and medley, Which she practices in Peterborough’s club. Harriet splashed onto the swimming scene, In 2010 at the World Champs, Netherlands, Where she won the silver individual medley, And the gold for the SB9 100m breaststroke. She suffered from illness in the year of 2011, But at the British Champs in 2012 in London, She won the gold for the 100m breaststroke, So at the 2012 Paras Harriet won the bronze. In French Montreal in Canada land in 2013, Harriet won the silver breaststroke class SB9, And then in Portugal’s Funchal on Madeira, She won gold medley relay and silver 4x100. This sent Harriet to Rio where she excelled, To win silver in the 100m breaststroke again, In a time of 1:16.87 minutes to tail behind, Gold medalist Lisa Kruger, the Netherlands.
