Interview: Samantha Murray – London 2012: Penathlon Olympic Silver Medalist

Today I had the honour of interviewing Samantha Murray who won Silver at London 2012 in the Modern Pentathlon.  She was opening the new Sports Suite at Brentwood School Sports Centre.

She competed at the Junior World Championships and Junior European Championships in 2010, where the British team won gold in both events. Individually, she finished 8th in the World competition and 15th overall in the European event.  The team of Murray,Katy Burke, Freyja Prentice and Heather Fell also competed in the 2010 World Modern Pentathlon Championships, where they placed overall in second place, winning the silver medal. Murray placed in 22nd position in the individual competition in her first senior competition.

Murray finished in sixth place at the World Cup event in Charlotte, North Carolina, in March 2012. Following that she competed in the Budapest Cup where she was victorious. Her first World Cup medal came in Rostov, Russia, in April 2012, when she won the bronze medal behind Anastasiya Prokopenko and Victoria Tereshuk. She had been leading going into the final day, but was overtaken during the run/shoot.

Along with Mhairi Spence, she was named to the British team at the 2012 Summer Olympics as the two female modern pentathlon competitors, and won the silver medal in the last event of the games.
