Product Description

Book Description

HONEST & INSPIRATIONAL - FROM CHILDHOOD TO DOUBLE OLYMPIC GOLD

Product Description

Kelly Holmes made history when she brought home double gold in the 2004 Olympics, becoming a national hero. She won Sports Personality of the Year, was given a Damehood, fully backed London's successful 2012 Olympic bid and became a superstar on the red carpet as well as a much acclaimed and consulted professional in the sporting world.

Now in her staggeringly honest updated autobiography she reveals the times she fought back tears to battle against injury and win gold, plus the emotional decision she made to retire from athletics.

Including details of her unsettled childhood, trials in the army and a struggle with self harm, Kelly's amazing determination carries through to make this inspirational and powerful autobiography a tale of triumph over adversity and a model for readers of all ages and backgrounds.

Unputdownable 8 Jan 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I gave this book the maximum of 5 stars as I enjoyed every word of it from start to finish. It took me 4 days to finish it. This book is definitely worth the £6.40 I spent on Kindle.

My favourite part of the autobiography is where Kelly writes about her passing out parade for the British Army and what her step-dad does. Very funny indeed from someone who has been in the Forces myself.
