Steve said: "My ambition is to die of old age. I lost my wife Linda in 2015 to breast cancer and we had good discussions before she passed away. "My training is going well and I'm hoping to win a medal again so I'm really looking forward to it and going there with a winning mentality, but it's exceedingly competitive."
"On the other side of that, myself and my family are really happy because I'm living, so without the donors and their families, myself and countless others wouldn't be here. The whole staff at the Golden Jubilee become your family too, they become a big part of your life.
