Steve Backley: The Fastest 90 metres plus Park Runner with an artificial hip!
This week we’re joined by javelin legend and Paula’s BBC TV Co-commentator Steve Backley. A medalist at World, Olympics, Commonwealth and European Championships, Steve comes from a family of runners and despite describing himself as a ‘failed runner’ he loves running and is a Park Run regular.
He’s got loads of amazing stories from meeting Steve Ovett as a kid, taking on Matt Pinsent and Steve Redgrave at Golf, getting stung by a jellyfish while out running and how a run on a deserted beach led to an amazing - but very random - family reunion.
Plus we've got news of a Special Shakeout in New York and our first listener Guinness World Record.
We've got the Honours Board and our sponsor for it is HIGH5 – the sports nutrition specialists helping people get the most out of their training and races. They want to give you goodies so please get in touch with your nominations.
