We recently caught up with Oscar who received a last-minute call to be Kennedy Ogada ’ s tandem pilot in the men ’ s road race for partially sighted competitors after his original partner was injured in training . “ I mean , the world works in wonderful and weird ways and I ’ m just glad that I could be here to support Ogada . I did not expect it at all really .” Dennis said after failing to finish the 127.8km route .
Dennis ’ original Games dream was shattered four years ago as he was involved in a horrific motorbike crash , leading to 12 operations , skin grafts and pins in his right foot . However we are delighted to learn that Oscar managed to get his classification into the PTS 5 category for the Paralympics where he will compete as a triathlete . Roll on LA 2028 !
