Entries are flying in nicely in the www.oscarpistorius.co.za 'What Inspires' competition. Today, we hear from Pieter Vorster who has his roots firmly in Cape Town, South Africa.
Pieter (Twitter name: @PWVorster84) wrote the following: "The welcoming sight of Table Mountain as you enter the City always make me feel energised. I regularly hike up or run its trails and feel so refreshed afterwards.
"It makes me think of home if I'm away, and inspires me to work and train hard, as I represent not only my family but also my beautiful city wherever I work or race. The history it has seen and the dreams it hold fascinates me, it inspires you to want to experience and see more, to love life."
YOU can ALSO get involved in this exclusive competition by telling Oscar Pistorius who, or what, inspires you!
Oscar said: "So many people inspire me, in athletics: British hurdler Colin Jackson, Namibian 100m and 200m runner Frankie Fredericks and American sprinter Michael Johnson have achieved great things and carried themselves in a very inspirational way.
"Outside of sport I really admire Italian motorcycle racer Valentino Rossi, he is very cool!
