Dame Kelly Holmes

Today’s guest is… undoubtedly one of the most successful British athletes of all time. Dame Kelly Holmes specialised in the 800 metres and 1500 metres events and won a gold medal for both distances at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Over recent years, Dame Kelly has been very open about her mental health struggles and is a global motivational speaker. In her new podcast, Stripped Back Sport, Kirsty Gallacher sits down for an open discussion with some of the greatest sports stars of our time; delving into the high and low moments of their careers, as well as their personal life and the sides to sport that have never been discussed before.
