On today’s episode, we are joined by a double Olympic champion who went on to play a pivotal role in bringing the Olympic Games to London in 2012. From athlete to administrator, Sebastian Coe has been one of the key figures in the world of athletics for nearly 45 years.
A world record breaker, his career was marked by rivalries with Steve Ovett and Steve Cram which electrified the nation as they went on to dominate the 1980 games in Moscow and the 1984 games in Los Angeles.
Now the president of World Athletics, Seb joins the show to provide insight on the key issues facing the Olympic movement. From the banning of Russian and Belarusian athletes to doping prevention, the transgender issue and beyond.
