Hannah England is hoping that the influence of Kelly Holmes will help her be successful at the Olympic Games later this year.
Retired Holmes won a gold medal in England's 1500m event eight years ago in Athens.
England has now hired the help of Holmes and believes that her experience could prove to be invaluable in London.
"Kelly's been massive," said England. "I've known her now for seven years and she's going to be massive for me over the next few months, just keeping my feet on the ground, keeping me focused and helping me cope with all the nerves and expectations that come with an Olympics."
England, 24, won a silver medal at last year's World Championships in Daegu.
