Joining us today is one of the greatest long-distance runners of all time, a world record-breaking athlete whose relentless determination and resilience has inspired millions — it’s the phenomenal Paula Radcliffe!

In this episode, Paula takes us through the defining moments of her extraordinary career, from the highs of shattering records at the London Marathon in 2003 — a time that remained unbeaten for 16 years — to the heartbreak of injury setbacks on some of the biggest world stages, including the Athens Olympics in 2004. She reflects on the mental resilience that kept her going, the reality of retiring from a sport that defined her life and the lessons she’s carried into life beyond competition.

Now focused on inspiring the next generation, Paula talks about the joy of running for pleasure, how she’s balancing ambition with self-care, and why she still laces up her trainers every day.
