The moment a national hero became an Olympic legend. Kelly Holmes had already won 800m gold at Athens 2004 just days before lining up in the 1500m final.
Not since Albert Hill in 1920, had a Brit won two athletics gold medals in the same Olympic Games

Nothing makes me more proud to be British than when I watch Dame Kelly's double.

I was a teenager during the 2004 Olympics and Kelly became and still is one of my Team GB Heros. What an amazing achievement it was to win 2 golds, I think Kelly inspired the current generation of female athletes and gave them the self- belief that they too can achieve their dreams.

I will honestly never tire of watching this race. When ability, tactics & form all align, magic happens ❤️

@Matt7895 3 года назад

Kelly Holmes coming from near the back to win in the last 300m is still one of the most incredible things I've seen in athletics.

@davidarmstrong1624 Год назад

I remember it like it was yesterday. I was at a neighbour's house, on my feet, pulling my hair out shouting, ''There isn't f***ing time! There isn't f***ing time! THERE ISN'T F***ING TIME! I don't believe it! I don't BELIEVE it! I DON'T BELIIIEEVE IT!!!!'

I watch Kelly's double gold moments all the time, some of my favourite moments in GB Olympic history 😊❤

@TheIkaraCult 4 месяца назад

I come back to watch Kelly's Golds every so often, she had bad injury issues before 2004 and I remember she wasnt expected to do well. Those Golds were earned the hard way, what a legend she is.

@gezzarandom 4 года назад

I was so pleased for her because she had been on the end of so many hard luck stories throughout her career with injuries etc, well done Kelly, you showed whats possible if you never give up.

@TBrl8 3 месяца назад

She was truly world class, starting at the back and having the confidence to go past every single athlete.

@MichaelSmith-me7cm 3 года назад

I adore Kelly Holmes. I was 12 at the time and I thought she was amazing, I still do! I did athletics for years and she was a real inspiration. What an achievement

@nicholelaskowski33 3 года назад

This is my favorite race to watch, she is such a hero of mine,. I watch it this every time i race and I'm not even fast or anything; it's just so inspiring watching her focus at the start and kick in the last lap

Waoh!! I love this lady very much.I was reading a story on BBC and decided to storm the youtube on her victories in Athens 2004.What an inspiration👏🏽👏🏽

@johnmoorely7275 3 года назад

Kelly was always top class but her injuries always prevented her from realising it - until 2004.

@sanderslongdrive 3 года назад

Kelly was a brilliant tactician. Once one physically becomes a top athlete that's only 90% of the training. The brain also has to go through intense training. One of our (nameless) finest lady middle distance runners could learn so much from Kelly.

I once walked behind Kelly along a long corridor. She was wearing a dress. I was amazed how thin her ankles were and wondered how they could support her never mind propel her to two gold medals.

Summer Olympics. 1904 USA. Sent Louis. Men's marathon. The first officially recorded use of doping at the Olympic Games, US athlete Thomas Hicks, was doped twice during the race by his coach, and he managed to cross the finish line and become Olympic champion.
