Hi guys,

Pete has very kindly let me tell you all about a project I am working on for Channel 4 called Year Dot. The project is a groundbreaking initiative, following the lives of 15 young people while they look for support online in their "Year Dot" - a defining year in their life.

One of the 15 is Chloe - she is a female wrestler who is hoping to compete in the 2012 Olympics.  We are following her progress as she deals with the ups and downs.

We are looking to get people to engage with Chloe, watch her videos and send her comments on her MySpace with their opinions, words of support and advice etc.


Here is a link to the latest catch up video with the latest news about Chloe: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=54594828


and here is the link to Chloe's Year Dot profile with blogs, journals, videos and comment pages:

If anyone has anything to say to Chloe she would love to hear from you!

Why not get Chloe, to come on the forum and tell us all how her training is going, she could do an online diary in the athletes section

Chloe competed in the English Senior Championships for wrestling on the 1st and 2nd of May and is the new English Senior Champion!

She is fighting her way to 2012 - check out her recent journal entries and videos here:

Chloe also talks about how she is getting on in the latest catch up video - http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=57259810 (near the end of the video).

If anyone has any advice or wants to share their own stories with Chloe, drop her a message at http://www.yeardot/comment

Latest from Chloe - 19/05/09

With an important fight on the horizon, Chloe's worried about her recurrent back and hip problems. Desperate to defend her title at this year's championship, will her chiropractor give her the go ahead to compete?

As ever, Chloe would love to hear your stories and advice.  Check out her latest video diary and let her know what you think

Chloe is feeling upbeat this week. She’s been reflecting on her first year and is getting organised for all her upcoming competitions. Her only concern is that she won't be able to get her fitness levels back up in time… Have you got any advice for her? Get in touch with Chloe and the other Year Dotters at www.yeardot.co.uk/comment

The Year Dot project is coming to the end of it's first year, we hope you have enjoyed following Chloe's progress! To celebrate we are asking you to send us your Year Dot stories on Twitter!

MyYearDot pulls in tweets from across the Twitter community.

Why not Tweet your Year Dot?
Tag it with:
 
    * #yeardot
    * #bestyear
    * #worstyear


You can also check out our Snapshot video which gives an insight into the Year Dot project, showing us some of the rights, wrongs, ups and downs of some of the 15 participants. We get to hear the participants’ reflections on the year’s events and see how their lives have changed –  in some cases, forever:
