🌟 Hollie Arnold: Back Stronger Than Ever! 🌟
After a much-needed nine-month break, Welsh para javelin star Hollie Arnold has rediscovered her passion and is ready to take on the world at the Delhi World Championships! 🎯✨
At 31, Hollie is no stranger to success, boasting a glittering career that includes Paralympic gold in Rio and bronze in Tokyo and Paris. But after the last Paralympics, she took time off to focus on her mental health – a brave and empowering decision that’s sparked a fresh fire within her! 🔥
“It was scary to face my deepest thoughts, but I’ve found myself again,” Hollie shares candidly. This newfound clarity has brought her longest throw since 2019, proving she’s more ready than ever to defend her titles and go for her seventh consecutive world win! 🏆
Competing isn’t just about medals for Hollie; it’s about enjoying life too. From nearly considering retirement to reviving her competitive spirit, she’s thrilled to be back and feeling more optimistic than ever. 🌈
Let’s cheer on Hollie as she represents Team GB on the opening day of the championships this Friday! She’s a fighter, determined to bring her best to the field! 💪🇬🇧
Sadly, close friend Zac Shaw won’t be joining her in New Delhi, having made the difficult decision to step back for personal reasons. Hollie stands in admiration of his choice, respecting his focus on self-care. 🕊️
Her positive journey is a reminder to us all: taking time to heal and grow is as important as the medals and accolades. Go smash it, Hollie! 🙌💙 #HollieArnold #TeamGB #Javelin #WorldChampionships #Inspiration #MentalHealthMatters
