Getting to know Laviai and Lina Nielsen

After volunteering at the London 2012 Olympic Games, 22-year-old identical twin sisters, Laviai and Lina, were inspired to chase down a career in athletics.

Now as world class sprinters in their own right, the sisters have always been super fans of athletics and have enjoyed every moment of their rise through the ranks. It is this passion and enjoyment for their running that has driven their ongoing success on the track.

We recently caught up with Lavia and Lina at the London Marathon Community track, in Queen Elizabeth Park, to talk to them about their training, motivation and goals for the rest of this year.
