Luke, a former Senior Aircraftsman in the Royal Air Force, has a spinal cord injury resulting in complete loss of function and sensation below his chest. Luke has been a handcyclist for a few years and has more recently started taking part in endurance cycling events which have given him a focus. For Luke, the Invictus Games give him a huge incentive to lose weight and get fitter, therefore increasing his strength and independence with everyday life. Being selected would be the opportunity of a lifetime and provide him with a sense of extreme pride.
