Could you cover 60km on difficult terrain using just your arms?
British Nordic Sit-Skier Scott Meenagh has attempted that this week in the Biathlon and Cross-Country events.
He’s the first competitor Paralympics GB has had in Nordic Skiing for 20 years.
Meenagh lost both legs after an explosion in Afghanistan.
Beth Rose talks to her fellow presenter, JJ Chalmers, about their time in rehab together and the time Scott tested out his new prosthetics on a log-flume.
