The rounded turn of a track with lanes painted in white on the red dirt.Here’s an inspiring story of Greta, a Lithuanian born triplet, whose family moved to Ireland to give their children as much opportunity as possible.
 
Greta quickly showed talent on the track and has been training with a guide for the last few years. She had to wait five years after arriving in Ireland to become an Irish citizen to run for the country, but now that she’s received her passport, she has entered, and won, international competitions but she’s keeping Rio as her top goal.
