CHAMPION Hannah Cockroft is aiming for gold – at the 2020 Olympic Games.

The Calderdale double-gold medallist spoke of plans to compete at the 2016 Rio Paralympics, the 2017 World Championships and the 2020 Paralympic Games.

“I plan on being at them all really,” she said. “I’ve got at least three more Paralympics left in me.

“As long as these events keep coming then I’ll aim to be at them and aim to be at the top of my game at every single one.”

Hannah, 20, is planning another decade in wheelchair racing, less than six months after she sprinted to a sensational golden double – winning the T34 100m and 200m at the London 2012 Paralympics.

And she’s come a long way since she was talent spotted playing seated discuss at a Paralympic potential day in 2007.

She said: “People are sometimes a bit starstruck when they meet me and I’m like‘ ‘I’m just Hannah, I’m just from Halifax, what are you doing?’ ”

Since the games she says things have been “insane” with many TV appearances including Celebrity Mastermind.

She’s also dedicated a lot of time to charity work. Hannah is an ambassador for Huddersfield’s Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice.

Her focus has now turned back to her sport.

She’s now preparing for the World Championships in Lyon in July.

She is in the early stages of learning from her new coach, 14-time Paralympic gold medallist Chantal Petitclerc, who she described as an idol.

Hannah had two cardiac arrests when she was born which damaged two different parts of her brain.

“That left me with deformed feet, deformed legs and weak hips,” she said. “It also caused problems with my fine motor skills so I struggle with tying shoe laces and I’ve got messy handwriting and problems with mobility and balance.

“I can walk a little bit but it’s just easier to be in a wheelchair when you’re outdoors.

“There were a lot of negatives when I was born, but I’ve got very supportive parents.

“At the time when I was a kid I probably hated them – they put me in walking frames and standing frames and splints and some truly horrible things that really hurt, but without all that determination to make me walk I’d just be sat down always.

“In the world today that’s not exactly ideal. Since London 2012 it has got better, but there are still places where you arrive in a wheelchair and you think ‘well I’m not going to get in there today.’

“Because I was born with my disability I’ve never really seen it as a challenge. You get up in the morning and you get on with what you’ve got to do. If you’ve got a dream you just follow it.

“The Paralympics was just one of those things where I thought ‘that looks pretty cool, I’ll give that a go’ and here I am!”
