The shape I'm in: Kate Taylor

Katie Taylor is living the dream. The lightweight boxing champion now has Rio firmly in her sights after qualifying for the games at the World Championships in Kazakhstan last month. “It’s a dream come true, everyone knows how much the Olympic Games mean to me and to have a chance to defend my title is an absolute honour,” she said shortly after the game-changing fight.

Now children up and down the country have the chance to start their own dream by entering a competition to win a training session with the Olympic gold medalist.

Katie and her mum Bridget Taylor are supporting Proctor and Gamble’s ‘Thank You, Mum’ campaign about the need for strong role models.
