Home » Colin Keay
Colin was educated at Queen Anne HS and introduced to DSF by school staff. During the 80s he was the outstanding T36 sprinter in the world and won 5 gold and 1 silver medals at the Paralympic Games in New York and Seoul.
Colin was the first DSF member to be coached in a mainstream athletics club – Fife AC. Fife AC must be congratulated for all the support provided during Colin’s decade at the top. Colin’s impairment was cerebral palsy, but he had secondary sensory challenges of deafness and absence of speech.
The support offered by his family throughout his competition years was second to none and critical to his success. Colin’s best event was 400 metres but he won gold medals in the shorter sprints and cross country.
Colin was Scotland’s first ambulant track star and a regular Scotland and GB pick during the 80s. Colin was inducted into the Scottish Disability Sport and Scottish Athletics hall of Fame.
