WHO IS YOUR OLYMPIC HERO AND WHY?I started focusing on pole vault in October 2008, straight after the Beijing Olympics where I watched many British athletes competing and doing well.I wasnt inspired by one performance in particular, I was just inspired by all of it. Watching everyone competing for their country and being in the big stadium looked amazing and thats when I knew I wanted to try to do it for myself. Holly impressed at last summers World Championships in Beijing 3. WHAT DOES THE OLYMPICS TRULY MEAN TO YOU?It means the world. Just to be at an Olympics is a massive honour. Representing your county at the highest possible level is such a privilege. To be at my second Olympics would be amazing.4. WHAT DO YOU THINK MAKES AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION?Utter commitment to your sport. Displaying the right attitude at all times whether at training or at home. An Olympic champion does all the right things it takes to become the ultimate champion. 5. WHAT ARE THE THREE MOST IMPORTANT ITEMS YOU WILL PACK FOR BRAZIL?My poles, glue and my coach Scott Simpson, of course.6. THERE ARE AROUND 268,000 MINUTES BEFORE RIO. WHAT ARE THE THREE MMOST IMPORTANT THINGS FOR YOU IN THAT TIME?Staying healthy and injury free.ddddddddddddEnjoying every minute and making sure Im having fun along the way. Its such a privilege to get the chance to be at an Olympics so you need to make sure you are enjoying yourself and not getting beat down with all the pressure and expectation.Making sure every minute counts. If Im about to do something that isnt going to help my in my preparations for Rio then I just dont do it. It stops me doing anything stupid - which Im partial to.I love playing tennis, I love rollerblading (Im not allowed to do it though) and jumping off walls! I just do wild stuff like that without thinking! Hollys coach Scott Simpson is on her list of most important things to pack for Rio! 7. HOW DO YOU TRY TO STAY CALM WHEN THINKING ABOUT THE OLYMPICS?I just stay focused on what I need to do and not think too much about the Olympics. You just need to try to see it as any other competition as getting worked up about it can be so detrimental.I focus on a day at a time - what training I have to do, what I need to focus on during the session, making sure Im doing everything right away from the track,That way I know Im doing everything I can and wont have any regrets.WHATS COMING UP FOR OUR SCHOLARS..............JAN 16 - MARCH 5: Siobhan-Marie OConnor, AustraliaFEB 3-5: Jack Bateson, Bocskai tournament in HungaryFEB 3: Mark English, racing in Dusseldorf FEB 4: Rio Olympics - 6 months to goFEB 6-7: Elise Christie, World Cup in DresdenFEB 13-19: Quillan Isidore, training camp in Zolder, Belgium Also See: About the Scholarship Meet the athletes Blogs Videos Galleries Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jersyes Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
