"The pressure comes now. Cockroft burst into the public consciousness on the chilly first night of para-athletics at London 2012, powering across the 100m line in her racing wheelchair, fearsome arms raised. It was the first of seven Paralympic golds she has since collected, and in Paris she will be trying to retain her T34 100m and 800m crowns, as well as taking a leg of the 4x100m universal relay."
"The expectation is now to enjoy the wedding day—no pressure, just enjoyment. Cockroft reflects on this balancing act with her wedding to fellow athlete Nathan Maguire shortly after the games, reminding herself that there are no expectations for the wedding, just to enjoy the day."
