I was interviewed by The Mirror about a month ago to talk about the upcoming Olympics and The National School Sport Week:
Here’s some of the things I’ve been up to this month…
26th June
I was on Loose Women ITV1 to talk about the upcoming National School Sport Week.
24th June
I launched the new National Lottery olympic Champions scratchcard which goes on sale on 3rd July. The National Lottery operator, Camelot, asked people to name their favourite British gold medalist from any Summer Olympic Games. My name came up along with Sebastian Coe, Jonathan Edwards, Sally Gunnell, Duncan Goodhew and Sir Steven Redgrave (photo of the launch below)
The National Lottery will contribute £2.2 billion to London 2012 of which £750 million will come from specially designated games like this olympic champions scratchcard.
23rd June
My new ‘On Camp with Kelly’ website has launched!
Now you can find out everything about my initiative and get to know all the athletes that I mentor, read the latest news, races, get to know my tem and more… Also on the website I have started a new Training Top Tips page where I’m posting my own personal training routines with detailed guide.

9th June
I took children from the Dreams Come True Charity to No10 Downing Street to meet Sarah and Gordon Brown for afternoon tea! The children, with their carers and families, thoroughly enjoyed the occasion.

Also on the 9th I launched the B&Q canvas design competition! Everybody is invited to enter by designing a picture that would brighten-up the accommodation of Team GB Athletes at this year’s Olympics. I know how important it is to remain focused throughout the competition and I think it’s really great that B&Q helps creating a ‘home from home’ for the athletes going to Beijing.

7th June
The Dream Mile took place on the long walk, in Windsor Great Park.
Photos of Saturday coming soon
Dreams Come True is a charity close to my heart because it makes a real difference in the life of children struck down with serious and terminal illnesses.
2nd June
I attended the Sport United Leadership Group Launch at the House of Lords as part of my ongoing support for the Princes Trust – the UK’s leading charity that helps young people overcome barriers and get their lives working.
