We're about to kick off our journey into 'Excellence'. I want to know who is a 'role-model' for you or someone (or group) that you might look up to.
I'd love for you to share a photo of the person/group that you have chosen and why you look up to that person. So, get a photo and get posting. I've kicked things off below with one of my role models:
Lance Armstrong
Lance was diagnosed with advanced testicular cancer in 1997 that had spread to his lungs and brain. He was given less than a 10% chance of surviving, but survive he did, going on to win the Tour de France (a 3000km cycle stage race) a record seven consecutive times. I appreciate his single-mindedness and perseverance and being driven in his goals to be the best that he can be in anything that he does. Now over the age of 40, he is competing in ironman competitions (4k swim, 180km bike, 42km run) and has qualified for the world ironman championships this year. He is a legend :)
Ok, enough from me - get posting!

Terry Pratchett is a very, um, interesting author. His odd sense of humour has captivated the ages. From unfortunate children to dribbling grandparents he has them all. His most popular serials are the Discworld serials, a flat world resting on four elephants with them on a giant turtle, swinging through a bunch of second hand galaxies. The reason I look up to him is because is humour so entrancing that sometimes makes me think that he escaped a hospital with rooms filled with sponge and white lab coats.
