'Blade Runner' Pistorious ready for Daegu challenge

Double amputee Oscar Pistorius is going to the London Olympics after being selected for South Africa's 4x400 relay team. The South African is set to become the first amputee track athlete ever to compete at any Olympics.

"To have been selected to represent Team South Africa is a real honour," said Pistorius, "and I am so pleased that years of hard work, determination and sacrifice have all come together. Today is truly one of the proudest days of my life."

Pistorius, long known as Blade Runner, has had to battle long and hard to convince the International Association of Athletics Federations that his carbon fibre limbs offer no technological advantage against able-bodied athletes.
