    I really enjoyed this one. More than most, surprisingly. Laura and Mary come across really well; Laura is so insightful, and you don’t always get that from the athletes themselves. Love it

    Really loved this. Zero attitude from Laura and Mary, zero "camera bravado", just solid work and good insights from the chat.

    Great video! Good to hear Laura's views on footwear for training sessions. I never understood the idea of wearing racing shoes for training. The whole idea of putting on different shoes to race is that they give a boost to the athlete physically and psychologically. you can't get that if yoyu wear them on a regular basis. And for a track runner like Laura, doing a session of this length on a road surface it makes sense to waer something with a bit more protection, surely?

    Is Laura from Leeds? When I went to Sheffield/Leeds I had a hard time understanding their accent but she’s totally understandable. Love seeing all the different places to run in the U.K. and hearing the accents!

    • @ianbarnett5839
      @ianbarnett5839 Před 2 lety +2

      Think you'll find Laura is from the north east of England, like coach Cram. Not far from Leeds.
