among four women athletes in the Venezuelan team. Obviously, this is an advantage for this team,
since the Brea sisters will be a tandem that helps each other during the competition. They will

It is evident that during any races, the two sisters help each other and work together to accomplish
the best results. If one of them isn't feeling good during a race, one will go in front and protect the
other one from the wind. They support each other when dealing with injuries and training. Besides

Brea and Edymar Brea are inseparable.

April Holmes is a prime example of having a strong work ethic. After losing the full use of her left
leg following a train accident in 2001, she began training for the Paralympic games after learning
about them from her doctor while in the hospital. She had three goals in mind: to someday wear
