05/08/2013-11/08/2013 - 100 People I would like to meet: Sports People

21) Jessica Ennis Hill
The golden girl of the Olympic Games, as dad says, you truly are not a great runner until you have a double barrel name. The pressure for her to perform at London 2010 must have been intense. I think her event is one of the hardest.

22) Mo Farah
Another one of the Super Saturday lot, a legend in all respects, everyone has watched him grow for many years and he’s doing us proud. He is now so popular he even has the Mobot! Let’s just hope he doesn’t work himself too hard in the future.

23) Greg Rutherford
Might as well compete the list, he is the closest one to me, area wise, always on the local news. A unexpected gold medal if I say so myself, never heard of him before that year. He did well, shame he could not do the world championships.

24) Louis Smith
Another of my local athletes, and of course winner of Strictly Come Dancing 2012, the epic gymnast who so narrowly missed out on the gold medal. He still did us proud as always and a great talent and role model to have for younger gymnasts. Good lad.

25) David Coulthard
One of our few British Formula one drivers that actually got somewhere, I’m a massive F1 fan so any of the drivers or past drivers would be amazing to meet. I’m a fan of the BBC coverage other than the Sky sports, must be the jaw bone.

26) Paul Di Resta
One thing about me, I love an underdog, I think that in the future, he’s going to do so well. I’ve supported him since I started watching the sport which is about 3 years ago. I hope he will get promoted this year by another team.

27) Max Chilton
You probably have noticed that I have not mentioned the big boys meaning Hamilton and Button, I much prefer the up and coming. Anyways, he’s young and I’m sure has a good future ahead. Okay, I’ll stop blabbering now and just say I do have a crush.

28) Sebastian Vettel
Probably one of the biggest talents in Formula One, I could not mention anyone in this motor sport without talking about him, the fastest man. I’d like to see how he even got into go carting I imagine and how he has got to become so fast.

29) Colin Jackson
My dad has met him before, and my aunt, but not me, he’s quite a legend, well before my time but I could not do hurdles! I like the commentary and his fair judgement. There’s no ‘Britain should have done better’ nonsense that you get from others.

30) Usain Bolt

Another link to my dad, they attended the same High School in Trelawney, Jamaica. Which is rather cool I think but anyway, I was saying about Sebastian Vettel being the fastest driver, move aside! The fastest man, what is it like and is his surname totally real?
