OCR Legend Laura Heywood

This week’s guest Laura Heywood is unusual for the podcast, because she has been a British, European and World champion. It’s rare we talk to people who can call themselves world class, and delightfully Laura insists we don’t. She’s been a winning competitor in the field of Obstacle Course Racing for several years now, and really is a bit of a legend in the sport. Like most of the people on our show, OCR is just a thing she’s into, because she has a full time job as a London fire fighter. We talk all things OCR, her experiences within the London Fire Brigade, and how balancing all that plus family life is harder than scrambling over a cargo net, wading through chest deep muddy water and traversing wet, cold and slippery monkey bars. And if that’s not tough enough for you, she also talks about being a competitor on Ninja Warrior UK.

Also, in case it's not clear or there's any doubt about the division of labour, Tanya does nothing on the show (that cannot be emphasised enough).
