Former Team GB star, 400m hurdler extraordinaire and all-round legend Perri Shakes-Drayton joins us this week. Having hung up her spikes in February 2020, the second-fastest British female over the 400m hurdles has set herself a very different running challenge: to complete this year's London Marathon. In the process, she's raising money for the Tommy's, the pregnancy and baby loss charity, and says she's found marathon training surprisingly enjoyable.
