In Paralympics, T is for track and F for field events; the number after, like my F44, is the sport class based on our impairment type and extent. Intentional misrepresentation is faking or exaggerating a disability to get into an 'easier' class, and it's a betrayal that makes my blood boil. You see, every morning I throw with this damaged leg, grinding so my F44 mark is honest — some days the pain is so bad I cry into Amma’s coffee, but I'd never cheat the very struggle that defines us.
