Part 2: Christine Ohuruogu talks about her career, becoming World & Olympic champion & more
In part 2 of this special two-part episode, Christine Ohuruogu talks to Andrew Nixon and Jonny Madill about the challenges facing both track and field and traditional sports more generally, especially making sport more attractive to a younger audience and increasing participation levels. She discusses the mental challenges facing athletes in the lead up to the rescheduled Tokyo Games, and also tells of how a conversation with a barrister some years ago led her to embark on a new career in the law, which culminated in her graduating from Queen Mary University with a law degree in July 2019. As well as being a true champion, Christine is open, honest and inspirational in how she talks about the sport she loves and the lessons she learned.
