It’s an honour to be recognised by such a tremendous athlete as Kelly and I have had so many great opportunities - high quality races which give us a chance to achieve qualifying times, weekends to educate us to think and behave like athletes and a chance to see the site for 2012 to increase ambition are all benefits which I have gained. Also, the chance to meet Kelly as a person and the comfort that there is an intelligent mentor who we can turn to in times of need. Kelly is an amazing athlete, her achievements speak for themselves. She gets involved in so many great schemes and initiatives and has some top visions to selflessly help others to also achieve their dreams. She inspires me by all that she has defeated to achieve her dreams, by never giving up and having no fear when it comes to pain. I also admire her character, she isn’t just a runner, she also has a personality which she has shared with the nation and given GB some pride. |
I have such a passion for athletics, I love pushing my body to the max and beyond. I love to feel the pain, the pride and it gives so much to my life. It gives me a goal, a purpose to life. I have met my closest friends through running, I can run out negative emotions and it relaxes me. |
