Lola Anderson: Living my late dad's Olympic dream
GB rower Lola Anderson discarded a note detailing an Olympic dream, but her dad saved it.
After seeing Great Britain's rowing success at the London 2012 Olympics, Richmond's Lola Anderson was inspired. She wrote down a dream of competing at the Olympics herself, but threw it away. Six years later, when her Dad Don was seriously ill, he found the note and gave it back to Lola. Now, she's living her Olympic dream, and hoping to replicate her World Championships success in Paris.
