Video: Colin and Laura ready to take centre stage

10 Aug 2012

After two week’s of gripping events London 2012 is coming towards its finale but before it does so there is the small matter of two Leitrim competitors taking centre stage tomorrow.

Ballinamore’s Colin Griffin will be competing in the 50k walk at 9am while Eslin’s Laura Reynolds will be competing in the 20k walk at 5pm and in this video Leitrim Observer sports editor John Connolly talks about what it means for the county to have two athletes competing in the Olympic Games.
