The brilliant Larissa Iapichino is our third athlete guest, after the Italian won her first major title at the European Athletics Indoor Championships in Apeldoorn earlier this year. Coming from sporting parents in two-time Olympic silver medallist Fiona May and former pole vaulting dad (and now coach) Gianni, Larissa talks about the pressure she faced coming into athletics, her passion for the Olympics, how a 4th place finish at Paris 2024 has fuelled her ambitions going forward, and much more.

Presented by athletics commentators Hannah England, Rich Newman and Katie Smith.
