Dreams Do Come True tells the inspirational story of one of Britain's golden girls from London 2012. Great Britain's finest woman rower had one final career target to achieve and, on 3 August 2012, on the water at Eton Dorney, she - and Anna Watkins - beat three other pairs to win the gold in the Women's Double Sculls at the London Olympics. After winning silver in 2000, 2004 and 2008, Katherine Grainger could finally call herself an Olympic champion.
Katherine's story is a remarkable one - proof that nice people can be winners, and that dedication and hard work pay off. As well as her achievements in athletics, Katherine has degrees from Glasgow and Edinburgh Universities and a PhD from London, in subjects as diverse as law, philosophy and murder. She has packed an awful lot into her 37 years, and in this autobiography she tells her life story: the highs and lows, and her ultimate moment of glory in front of thousands of home fans.
©2013 Katherine Grainger (P)2014 Audible, Inc.What struck me most was learning about her encouraging and nurturing childhood. Her family’s support laid a strong foundation, and it’s clear that Katherine carried those values of positivity, humility, and perseverance into every stage of her life. Even in the face of setbacks, injuries, and challenges, she never made excuses. Instead, she held herself accountable, learned from the experience, and came back stronger.
Katherine’s story goes far beyond athletic triumphs—it’s a masterclass in attitude. Her unwavering optimism and “never give up” outlook are what truly set her apart. She models how to handle life’s ups and downs with grace and determination, and she does so in a subtle, encouraging way that never feels preachy.
This book is a must-read for anyone looking for a role model in both success and character. Whether you’re chasing a big dream or just need a boost of motivation, Katherine Grainger’s story reminds you that resilience, positivity, and self-belief really can take you all the way. Highly recommended!
