CNN —As Hunter Woodhall crossed the line and sealed a Paralympic gold medal in the men’s 400m T62 final, he let out a roar and carried on running to find his wife, Tara Davis-Woodhall.
“I know that we do the same things, we train together, we eat together, we recover the same way,” he said.

“We just have a lot of fun.”Hunter Woodhall now has four Paralympic medals.
Woodhall was born with a fused right ankle and a condition called fibular hemimelia, which affected his left leg.
