Karen Pickering speech at GDST Annual Reception 2012 - Part 1

Karen delivered an inspiring and amusing speech at the GDST's Annual reception. Her achievements are quite remarkable. She represented Britain at a senior level for 20 years during which time she won more major championship medals for Britain than any other female swimmer and won the most Commonwealth medals for England of any female athlete in any sport. She was also the first British female swimmer to win a World Championship title when she took gold in the 200m freestyle in 1993.
