Our very own Sam Thompson completed his Matchball Mission for Soccer Aid for Unicef by running and cycling 260 miles up and down the country, and we could not be prouder.

We have loved watching the country fall in love with you all over again Sam - and can't wait to celebrate you when you're back!

We recorded this episode just before Sam set off for his mission - hear his thoughts and fears heading into the week, and what this challenge really meant to him and to Soccer Aid.

There might also be some surprise audio from Pete's visit to Sam's checkpoint in Birmingham...
