Paralympian Sets Her Eyes on Competing in Rio

Oksana Masters has birth defects believed to be from the aftermath of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident, and was sent to an orphanage by her parents in Ukraine when she was young — but that hasn’t stopped her from becoming a three-time Paralympic medalist in rowing and cross-country skiing. Now, Masters has her sights set on making the cycling squad for the Rio de Janeiro Paralympic Games later this summer.
