| Injuries | She has battled a shoulder problem in the past. |
| Other | After a battle with a shoulder injury, Kelly revitalised her career by focusing on Butterfly instead of her specialty of Backstroke.
Kelly studies Human Kinetics at the University of British Columbia and trains under Tom Johnson. She hopes to one day work in the sport management/special events area when she completes her studies and her career as a swimmer.
Her decision paid off at the 2005 World Trials where she surprised herself by placing second in the 200m Backstroke and earning a spot on the World Championships team.
Kelly has had the unforgettable experience of winning a gold medal in the 100m Backstroke at the Pan American games in her home pool and town of Winnipeg.
When not hard at work at the pool, you can find Kelly at the movies or getting the perfect tan at the beach. |
