Age: 26
Remarkably Ellen Keane is preparing for her fourth Paralympic Games at the age of just 26.
She made her debut in Beijing in 2008, but the undoubted highlight of her Paralympic Games career was her first medal - a bronze - last time out in Rio in the SB8 100m breaststroke.
She did even better at 2018's World European Para-Swim Championships where she took gold, also in the 100m breaststroke. It saw her receive a nomination for the RTÉ Sportsperson of the Year award.
Away from the pool Keane is studying for a Culinary Entrepreneurship in TUD.
