Team GB – Olympic heroes
The year 2012 was a very special one for
British sportsmen and women. Firstly, the
Olympic Games were in London for the
first time since 1948. Secondly, Team GB
(Great Britain) won a total of 63 medals: 28
gold, 17 silver and 18 bronze. This
performance was even better than for the
2008 Beijing Olympic Games, when the
British team won 47 medals.
Two of the most popular heroes of the 2012
team were cyclist Chris Hoy and heptathlon
٭ athlete Jessica Ennis. Chris won two gold
medals in London and Jessica won her first
one.
Chris was already a world champion cyclist
with four gold medals from the last two
Olympics in 2008 and 2004. Born in
Edinburgh in 1976, he began cycling after
he saw the Steven Spielberg film E.T. in
1982. He started winning races in 1999,
and won his first Olympic gold medal at the
Athens Olympics in 2004.
Jessica is a new name on the Olympic gold
medallist list. Born in Sheffield in 1986,
she started doing athletics at school and
won her first prize when she was ten: a pair
of running shoes. In 2009, she came first in
the World Championships and was also
first in the 2010 World Indoor Competition.
She won the 2012 Olympic Games gold
medal with an amazing total of 6,955 points
for her seven events and had 306 more
points than the silver medallist.
When the London Olympics finished, there
was a big parade in London to celebrate
Team GB’s success. Team GB came 3rd in
the Olympics and the Paralympics. On this
day, all the British sportsmen and women
went to Buckingham Palace to meet the
Queen. Today, though, they’re all preparing
for 2016 – the Rio Olympic Games in
Brazil. Will they repeat the successes of
2012?
