In total, Funky Trunks had nine F-Teamers competing at the 2016 Paralympic Games. For Black Cochrane, it was his third Paralympics and we caught up with the champ to talk all things Rio.

Despite winning silver in the Men's 100m Breaststroke SB7, Blake admitted there was an element of disappointment after his race, until his coach dispensed some timely advice.


"At first I was a little disappointed with the time as it was almost 1.5 seconds slower than my best,"Blake says.

"But my coach Jan Cameron pulled me aside and offered some very wise words, that this is probably the one year where the result - a medal - is more important than any other factor. That's when I realised we had achieved what we set out to achieve - to win silver. Gold was a little far out of reach so we targeted an appropriate goal and I was very happy to do that."

His silver added to an already impressive tally of two golds at London 2012 (Men's 100m breaststroke SB7 and Men's 4 x 100m freestyle relay) and silver in the same event in Beijing in 2008. Having absorbed his coach's advice, Blake enjoyed his time one the podium.

"It's always a very rewarding process. In swimming, or any Olympic or Paralympic sport for that matter, you wait four years for that big opportunity. Sure, World Championship medals are awesome, but that big one that comes around every four years - that's one you want, that's what you train for. To put all those hours in and come out with a medal - you're stoked!"
