Paralympian Patrick O'Leary
Patrick has been canoeing for twenty-six years, and has been a Paracanoeist for three. This Cork man is aiming to become the first Irish canoeist to compete at a Paralympic Games when the sport makes its debut in 2016.
This is the first year at Paracanoing has been recognised as a sport at the Paralympics. Patrick O'Leary will continue to canoe after the competition ends, because that's what he does. #PositiveEnergy

Proud supplier of #PositiveEnergy to Paralympics Ireland for Rio 2016.
At Flogas, we take a partnership approach that delivers maximum benefit to the athletes, sports, and causes we work with. We create sponsorships that really make a positive difference and help give our athletes that extra 1-2% they need to compete.
Over the years, Ireland’s Paralympians have delivered some of the country’s most memorable sporting moments, and as we kick off the Rio 2016 Paralympics, we’re delighted to be official partners of Paralympics Ireland.
To celebrate this relationship, we decided to tell the incredible stories of four Irish Paralympic athletes – focusing on their paths to success, training regimes, and most importantly, the support they’ve received throughout their careers so far. Nobody is an island unto themselves, and the cumulative support of friends, family, coaches, sponsors and supporters can be the difference in winning a medal (we hope!).
Please take a look and share these incredible stories. And to help us support our Paralympians, use the hashtag #PositiveEnergy with your message on social media.
