Welsh Athletes | Lowri Morgan interview

Where I lived really helped to shape that, and I was fortunate to have all the support I needed. I was very lucky with athletics. I had a track just 15 minutes down the road, and never had to travel far to train. And when I played rugby for Wales at university, we had a passionate coach who inspired us all to push ourselves.

We’ve got the world class facilities, the passion and so much talent in Wales, but it’s all about developing, nurturing and inspiring each new generation. It begins with the very first steps. Tour de France 2018 winner Geraint Thomas often talks about the Maindy Flyers Youth Cycling Club, which he belonged to as a child. Without organisations like that, and the volunteers out there to make sure children can take full advantage of the opportunities, our efforts wouldn’t be bearing fruit.
