Suzi Boast, a member of the On Camp With Kelly mentoring initiative led by Dame Kelly Holmes, went on a tour of the London 2012 Olympic Park in Stratford last weekend.
The St Mary’s University student joined a tour led by Lord Sebastian Coe to the velodrome, athletes’ village and aquatics centre as well as the main stadium.
Boast said: “Having the chance to stand track level in the London 2012 Olympic Stadium gave me the opportunity to visualise in a more realistic way the dream I have to compete in such a fantastic event. It makes you realise that those dreams actually could become a reality.”
