Episode 3020: Sophie’s Olympic Run, Anatomy Of A Relay, Man Utd Take Nostalgia To 11
Sophie Becker and her 4 x 400m teammates provided us with excitement, hope, drama, joy and tears throughout the second week of the Olympics, and she joins us in studio today.
We discuss her experience in Paris, running PB’s in Olympic semis and finals, that 4th place feeling, solo v relay and the team bond.
