Gold for Kelly Holmes

[trueblue]

Had the good fortune to meet her a few years back. Really, really nice person.

Has any athlete ever deserved a gold more? So, so gutsy and she's had injury after injury....

Blinding!

Well run and it may well be a double as she has the 1500m tomorrow.

Well done Kelly.

I did love watching her reaction at the end of the race though. Marvellous Scenes.!!!!!!!

The Slovenian Jolanda Ceplak who came in third was fit.

Well Done Kelly, Knew you could do it,

Brilliant run

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Overjoyed for her, got quite emotional at the end. I thought the others were going to catch her. She's a graduate of one of the toughest schools in Tonbridge, Hugh Christie.

 

[The Oldman]

Must admit half way I had my doubts but fantastic run but 1 more stride and blondie's chest would have won. Ooh Er!

 

[Strike]

Well done Kelly Holmes nice to see you have won a gold after the injurysyou have had.

 

[Donny Osmond]

Went to school with her half brother. He was quick too.
Well done Kelly

Great Race. It is on the BBC web page in video. As good a running race as I have ever seen!

 

[Beach Hut]

The only place you could possibly jog to is a bar

 

[Blackadder]

Get in there Kelly!

Come on Paula, now you must run the 10,000 on Friday!

 

[chips and gravy]

The most entertaining part was when she wasn't sure she had won - a great moment.

Well done Kelly - a crowning achievement after all the bad luck over the years
