´óÏó´«Ã½

British Olympic marathon runner Rose Harvey only took up running after losing her job as a lawyer during the first Covid lockdown. It was an extraordinary achievement to get to the Olympics this year at all - even more so because it turned out she had a broken leg.

In spite of that she ran the whole race and finished with a time of 2 hours 51 minutes. The ´óÏó´«Ã½'s Justin Webb has been speaking to Ms Harvey and to her fiancee Charlie Thuillier.
