It\u2019s exciting to be able to represent Scotland and then Great Britain. I think that\u2019s a shift in my mindset because previously I probably would\u2019ve been dreading it and worried about how my body would\u2019ve taken those impacts but I feel ready for it. I think the way Stirling has set me up for this double is really exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angharad Evans Faces Successive Contests as Europeans Follow Hot on the Heels of Glasgow Glory Watch the European Championships Live (And Free!)
