Home Town Heroes - Chris Tomlinson

Home Town Heroes - Chris Tomlinson

As part of a new series called 'Home Town Heroes' sponsored by Alfa Romeo, we will be featuring videos of Team GB athletes as they head back to their roots before the curtain is raised for the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

 

Episode three features UK long jump record holder Chris Tomlinson, who took time out from his preparations for the UK Trials and Championships (22-24 June) to return to his former secondary school to host a long jump master class for pupils.

 

The master class took place at Nunthorpe School in Middlesbrough and saw Tomlinson coach pupils in the essentials for a good jump.
