Mary King to go for seventh Games?

By Victoria Spicer on 1st-Aug-2012

Mary King is keen to be selected for a seventh Olympic Games, to match the achievement of her fellow event rider, New Zealand's Mark Todd. 

Keep going

Following her performance at London 2012, in which she helped Great Britain to win team silver, Mary told BBC News today (Wednesday) that she would "keep going" and hopefully be selected for the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro. 

The 51-year-old has yet to win a gold medal, and she has no plans to retire while this one ambition remains unticked off her list. 

There's a chance she may not be the only King on the team by then - as her daughter Emily (16) is already proving to be one of the brightest talents in eventing.
