Health and social care students at Brooklands College were inspired by a talk from British Paralympian, Peter Hull.
The swimmer won three gold medals in the Barcelona Paralympic Games in 1992 and has completed 12 marathons, including the London marathon six times, and 18 half marathons.
The athlete, an MBE, visited Brooklands College to discuss his training, motivation and determination from a young age and talked about overcoming his disabilities, having been born without legs and with arms that end at the elbows.
Mr Hull said: βIt was a real pleasure to talk to such a group of enthusiastic students.β
