The
person who inspires me is Valerie Adams.
Valerie Adams won 3 world
titles, 2 gold medals at the Commonwealth Games and an Olympic gold
medal. She had done all this by the age of 26.She
was born in Rotorua, New Zealand. A Tongan mother (Lilika Ngauamo) and
an English father (Sydney Adams). She had an athletic build and was exceptionally
strong and tall.
At
the 2006 Commonwealth Games 1.96 tall, she won a gold medal. She
finished the year ranked Number 2 in the world and won the halberg
Awards as sportsman of the year.From
2007-2009 she was the number 1 shot-putter in the world. In 2007, 2008, and 2009 she
won the world title. She was a winner of the Olympic gold medal in
Beijing in 2008. I wish that I could become like her one day. In the future I would compete in discus and shot-put at a championship level.
