Jan 18, 2016, 12:14 PM

Arthur Lanigan O'Keeffe is an Olympic Modern Pentathlete. Starting off with swimming for a young child with coordination issues, to now becoming a mondern Pentathlete, Arthur has fast become 'one to watch' for Rio 2016. In 2015 alone, Arthur became European Champion for Modern Pentathlon, automatically qualifying him for Rio, and with mixed relay partner Natalya Coyle got silver in the Modern Penathlon World Cup. Rio won't be Arthur's first Olympics as he went with Team Ireland to London in 2012, after being selected 4 weeks before the Olympics when a Polish athlete had tested positive for doping. Arthur has gone from strength to strength since London 2012, and in this short clip he talks about what his motivations, influences and his ultimate goal of making the podium in Rio 2016.
