Description

Sarah Calvert recently outkicked Olympic silver medallist Laura Muir to become the British 1500m champion, just days after taking a world silver medal in the World University Games.

Sarah always showed promise and talent, with a number of national titles and notable performances as a junior. However, her success was intermittent and sporadic at times as a result of a number of challenges she faced.

In this episode Sarah shares how she fell in love with running at the age of 8, and how her phenomenal mindset carried her through some really difficult, and almost career ending times, to being the world class athlete she now is.

Sarah reflects on her recent training changes, and how she has made some difficult decisions in order to stay true to her own values.

A really inspiring and eye-opening episode, which makes for a heart warming listen.
