Wheelchair racer Hannah Cockcroft speaks to Eleanor Oldroyd about her brilliant career. The winner of seven Paralympic golds and the holder of five world records in the T34 classification, Hannah discusses how she got into the sport, the people who inspire her as well as the importance of her wheelchair (and making sure the size is correct!) and why she is determined to just keep on winning.

After taking a two-year break from the sport, Tom Daley is back to compete in his fifth Olympics at Paris 2024. And, speaking to his former diving mentor Leon Taylor, he reflects on how it felt to finally end his wait for gold at Tokyo 2020.

Dame Sarah Storey discusses her remarkable Paralympics career with Ely Oldroyd explaining how she developed her love for swimming, but ended up switching to cycling, where she continued to win gold after gold.

Sprint legend Michael Johnson joins Katharine Merry and Allison Curbishley on the podcast to discuss his many career highlights that have included winning eight world titles and four Olympic gold medals.

The American chooses as his 'gold medal achievement' his sensational 200m and 400m double at his home Olympic Games in Atlanta in 1996.

It wasn't easy to find a 'wooden spoon moment' but Johnson explains that he still holds some regret about losing a race at high school.

Helen Glover discusses her career as an Olympic Gold medal winner and also her aims for this summer's games in Paris. She talks about how she began her rowing career, the legacy that she hopes to leave and her greatest moments in life and her career.

From his training base in Jamaica, Zharnel Hughes sits down with Eleanor Oldroyd ahead of this summer's Paris Olympics. He’s a double Commonwealth Games and European Championships gold medallist, and now he’s aiming to add an Olympic title to his collection.

He goes right back to the beginning - from when he first discovered he was pretty fast, to making the move to Great Britain, and moving on from the disappointment of missing Rio and false starts and team disqualification in Tokyo.

He also gives us a glimpse inside his mind when on the start line and discusses if it’s time for a new era of athletics

Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill is the latest athlete to discuss the most memorable moments from her career and she looks at some of the highlights in the sport that stand out for her.

She reminisces on watching a remarkable world record breaking run from Usain Bolt in 2009 and having an unlikely fan in Denzel Washington.

Ennis-Hill also talks about returning to compete as a mum and how that impacted her Olympic performance in 2014 and reflects on her gold medal win on Super Saturday at London 2012

The British athletics legend chats to Eleanor Oldroyd about her incredible career, capped by winning Olympic gold in the 800m and 1,500m in 2004.

She discusses her career - and explains how portable toilets and ice creams featured during the Athens Games.

She also opens up about living in fear for years that her sexuality would be revealed, and how inspiring just one other person by coming out would eclipse all her sporting success.
