In this episode we are live at Wild Goat Festival where we were incredibly lucky to talk to a legend in the sport, Paula Radcliffe. Paula shares the journey that led her to breaking the women's marathon world record in 2003 in a time of 2:15:25, which was held for 16 years. We hear what she believes set her apart from her competitors, how she kept her mind so strong and the importance of perspective and enjoying what you do.
