First sporting success: Scoring a goal in football training aged 9 (flawless close range effort!)
Worst sporting moment: European Juniors 1994, Czech Republic. (Awful, awful, awful, awful).
Sporting heroes: Mohammed Ali, Eric Cantona, Steve Davis, Lance Armstrong, James Cracknell, Paulo Maldini and David Beckham.
Toughest opponent: James Hickman - never beat him, but he won't race me anymore!
Tip for the top: Success consists simply of getting up one more time than you fall.
Favourite venue: Manchester Aquatics Centre - I've always performed well there.
Favourite food: Mum's chilli.
Favourite holiday destination: Anywhere with waves - Bail, Biarritz.
Favourite Film: Jerry Maguire, Fight Club, La Haine, Amelie, Il Postino and Fargo - all must sees.
Favourite saying: 'The pain of failure is nothing compared to the pain of regret.' But another favourite is 'All you need is love.' - so true.
Three words that describe you best: Unique, Loving and Driven.
Most prized possession: My integrity.
