We absolutely love Kellie Harrington.

The gold medal winning Olympian has a knockout personality and an inspiring outlook on life.

Weekend Breakfast with Alison Curtis spoke to her about her role as brand ambassador for Spar and their  'Better Choices' campaign.

She talks passionately about how Irish boxing has more than any other sport saved the lives of young people in this country.

Boxing clubs are saving the lives of some kids. It builds resilience and discipline and self worth. Having a coach there who knows their name, knows who they are it means so much

Kellie also reveals what food fuels a gold medal winning athlete.
