From the verge of quitting to a Paralympics gold for Susie Rodgers

Paralympics swimming gold medallist Susie Rodgers says she almost quit the sport after London 2012.

The 33-year-old won gold in Rio in the S7 50m butterfly, but admits she exceeded her own expectations.

“I wasn’t going to carry on after London,” Rodgers said.

“I can’t believe I’ve done that, I was trying for the silver if I’m honest,” she added.

You can listen to extensive coverage of the Paralympics on BBC Radio 5 live and watch it on Channel 4 or C4 online.
