Get ready for the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games, starting on August 28, as American cross-country runner Dani Aravich, a fan favorite, is set to make this year's event an unforgettable one.

Aravich, who was born without her left arm and forehand, has a unique message for the sports community to support the Paralympics. She encourages fans to create memes of the memorable moments from the tournament, aiming to dismantle the fear and stigma surrounding disabled athletes. Aravich has been actively promoting the Paralympics since January, and her recent challenge to fans to share humorous posts might be the spark needed to increase the event's popularity.

With her determination and resilience, Aravich has overcome many obstacles throughout her life, excelling in various sports, including softball, soccer, basketball, and ice skating, before discovering her passion for cross-country running in high school. She even had a successful stint as a D1 runner at Butler University.

Despite her physical disability, Aravich refuses to let her circumstances define her. She aims to prove that her disability does not limit her potential by training full-time and competing in her second Paralympics. Will the Parisian stage be where Aravich achieves the the recognition she deserves?
