Adjust font size:

Monday night's schedule will focus on the distance racers, who will be going for gold in five events. Medals will also be decided for four throwing events and two sprints.

800m

Spectators will have to try and not get too dizzy, as they watch some of the world's fastest 800m athletes compete in four different 800m finals.

Kenya's Stephen Wambua Musyoki qualified fastest for Monday night's final of the Men's 800m - T46 (ambulant athletes with amputations and other disabilities).

In the Men's 800m - T53 (wheelchair athletes with different levels of spinal cord injuries and amputations), Josh George of the United States, who qualified fastest (1:38.30), will be the favorite to pick up gold. George and the other finalists will be chasing down the world record of 1:37.91.

The Women's 800m - T53 will see all three medalists from Athens 2004 Games in action - Cheri Blauwet of the United States, Fransesca Porcellato of Italy and Madelene Nordlund of Sweden.

In the Men's 800m - T13 (a visual impairment classification), the competitors will be chasing down the world record (1:52.50) and the longstanding Paralympic record (1:54.79).

1500m

China's Zhang Zhen qualified fastest (4:14.85) in Saturday morning's heats for the Men's 1500m - T11 (level of visual impairment) final, and will be the man to beat on Monday night.

Jason Dunkerley of Canada, who recorded the second fastest qualifying time (4:15.65), will be keen to finish among the medals.

200m

In the Men's 200m - T36, the two Chinese competitors (Xu Ran and Che Mian) will get plenty of encouragement from the crowd. The world record (24.75s) could be challenged.

100m

It will be all about speed and reaction times, when the competitors in the Women's 100m - T52 (wheelchair athletes with different levels of spinal cord injuries and amputations) hit the track.

Canada's Michelle Stilwell will be a medal favorite, after recording good times this year.

The three US competitors (Cheryl Leitner, Mallerie Badgett and Kerri Morgan) will also be a good chance of getting upon the dais.

Shot Put

On the field, the gold will be decided in two Shot Put events.

In the Men's Shot Put - F55/56 (wheelchair athletes with different levels of spinal cord injuries and amputations), Karol Kozun of Poland will be favorite for gold , after posting some solid puts this season.

In the Women's Shot Put - F40 (ambulant athletes with different levels of amputations and other disabilities), Tunisia's Racua Tlili has a good chance of setting a Paralympic record, and will be hoping to tumble her own world record (8.81).

Club Throw

In the Men's Club Throw - F32/51 (wheelchair athletes with cerebral palsy or different levels of spinal cord injuries and amputations), Mourad IDOUDI of Tunisia and Karim Betina of Algeria will be two of the favorites, after posting solid results this season.

Discus Throw

For ambulant athletes with different levels of amputations and other disabilities, the gold will be decided in the Men's Discus Throw - F44. Daniel Greaves of Great Britain and Jackie Christiansen of Denmark are sure to be among the top performers. Greaves holds the world record (55.53m) for this event.
