Olympic Heroes

Double Olympic gold medallist Laura Trott's Olympic campaign hasn't been the only thing making the headlines about her. She's been swigging beers with Prince Harry, and is dating fellow double Olympic gold medallist Jason Kenny. The inspirational part of Laura's story is that she Was born with a collapsed lung, and she was told to take up exercise to regulate her breathing.

Olympic Champion Joanna Rowsell has Alopecia (Chronic Hair Loss), but she doesn't let that stop her, and has used her fame to raise awareness of the condition, and bagged a gold with Laura Trott on 4th August. 
Dani King also won gold with Laura and Joanna on Saturday. She came down with glandular fever whilst training to be an elite cyclist in 2009, but has since made a dramatic recovery.
These athletes convey a strong message-Follow your dreams and don't let anything get in your way because if you know you can do it, you can.
