Kadeena Cox expressed her disappointment after her eight-year reign as Paralympic C4-5 time trial champion ended with a crash during the Paris 2024 medal race. Despite qualifying second fastest, she fell on the first corner and lamented, 'It has just been a really rubbish year. This time last year I couldn't walk because I had a really bad relapse that affected my right side. It’s just not what you want a year out from the Games.'
Reflecting on her recent struggles, Cox said, 'I think I got back on the bike two weeks ago. I was in a boot four weeks ago. It's been a roller-coaster, I guess that's MS.' After her fall, she was visibly distraught and said, 'I'm just gutted I was able to ride a ride that was pretty great in the first round and then not go out there and show what I'm capable of.'
