It is near where the world-renowned Robin Hood became a legend.\u00a0But that was a thousand years ago.\u00a0 Today, Becky is the region\u2019s most famous celebrity as a modern hero who won her gold honestly in the pool.<\/p>\n<p>The legend of Becky was not born in Sherwood Forrest, but in the Sherwood Baths.\u00a0 The youngest of three girls, Becky naturally wanted to do what her older sisters did.\u00a0 The sisters were all swimmers.\u00a0 \u00a0Before long, Rebecca\u2019s desire to keep up with them made her into a serious competitor.<\/p>\n<p>By the age of 14, when she was showing real promise as a distance swimmer, she came under the guidance of coach\u00a0<strong>Bill Furniss<\/strong>, who would remain her coach throughout her career. She thrived on his regimented routine and the lifestyle of training twice a day, four times a week, with Saturday mornings and meets.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI never had to wake her up,\u201d recalled her mother Kay. \u201cShe was always ready.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Her commitment to training combined with mental toughness and her ability to tolerate pain made her one of Britain\u2019s brightest Olympic hopefuls. After a year with Furniss she won the 800 meters gold medal at the 2004 European Junior Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Both Becky and her coach looked forward to 2005 with high expectations, but early in the year she came down with a case of glandular fever. Then, just as she was getting back in the pool, her sister Laura came down with a case of encephalitis that put her on life-support and fighting for her life for over a month. Laura eventually recovered, but the experience was traumatic for Becky and the next few years were full of ups and downs.<\/p>\n<p>In 2006, she won the silver medal in the 800 free at the European Championships, but then placed 10<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0the next year in the same event.<\/p>\n<p>As the British Olympic Trials in 2008 approached, Becky knew she would have to swim her heart out and to the surprise of many, she won the 200 and 400 meters freestyle, in addition to the 800, which was her signature event. She would drop the 200 to focus on the longer events.<\/p>\n<p>First up in Beijing was the 400, an event for which she had not even been certain to qualify for the British team. In the prelims she swam brilliantly and qualified for the finals in lane in 5. Then, in the final, she went from fifth place with 50 meters to go to snatch the gold medal ahead of American\u00a0<strong>Katie Hoff<\/strong>\u00a0and teammate\u00a0<strong>Joanne Jackson<\/strong>\u00a0in a thrilling finger-tip finish. It was the first Olympic gold medal for a British woman since\u00a0<strong>Anita Lonsbrough<\/strong>\u00a0who won the 200 meters breaststroke in 1960.<\/p>\n<p>When she won the 800m freestyle five days later, destroying the field and smashing\u00a0<strong>Janet Evans<\/strong>\u2018 19 year-old world record, there was no precedent. Adlington was the most successful woman swimmer Britain ever produced and the first British swimmer since\u00a0<strong>Henry Taylor<\/strong>\u00a0won multiple gold medals one hundred years earlier, in 1908.<\/p>\n<p>Her triumphs in Beijing brought her instant fame: front-page headlines, an open-top bus parade in her home town and a coveted pair of gold Jimmy Choo shoes. In 2009 she became a celebrity spokesperson for the Encephalitis Society and received an Office of the British Order (OBE) by HRH (Her Royal Highness) Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace.\u00a0 And in 2010, the refurbished Sherwood Swimming Baths were renamed the Rebecca Adlington Swimming Centre.<\/p>\n<p>But she hadn\u2019t retired.\u00a0 In fact, between the Beijing and London Olympics, she stood on the podium in every major international event in which she competed, even though she refused to wear the polyurethane suits that helped the world records tumble in 2009.\u00a0 When she won gold in the 800 and silver in the 400 meters freestyle at the 2011 FINA Championships in Shanghai, expectations were high that she could repeat her double gold medal performance from Beijing in London.<\/p>\n<p>But it was always going to be tougher for her for her competing at home. In Beijing she was an unknown, which is a tremendous psychological advantage in terms of pressure and surprise. In London, that advantage belonged to a 15 year old American named\u00a0<strong>Katie Ledecky<\/strong>. So it wasn\u2019t to be.<\/p>\n<p>When Adlington took bronze in the 400 meters, she was delighted \u2013 for the 400m was her weaker race. But after winning a second bronze in the 800, the disappointment showed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry I didn\u2019t win,\u201d she said after the race, and \u201cI hope the public were still proud of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t have to worry about that.\u00a0 The British public adored her and when she retired a few months later, at the age of 23, it was as Great Britain\u2019s most decorated female Olympian of all time.\u00a0 Since then she has joined the BBC as a popular commentator for the aquatic sports. She has appeared on a number of television shows as a celebrity guest, contestant or spokesperson.\u00a0 In 2015, she gave birth to a daughter,\u00a0<strong>Summer<\/strong>, and in 2016 she launched\u00a0<i>Becky Adlington\u2019s Swim Stars<\/i>\u00a0\u2013 a partnership program designed by Becky for pool operators to make learning to swim fun and enjoyable. Her vision is to ensure that every child leaves primary school able to swim at least 25 meters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Relive the special night for\u00a0Rebecca Adlington\u00a0when the\u00a0International Swimming Hall of Fame inducted the class of 2018\u00a0during ceremonies in Fort Lauderdale Florida on May 19th.
