Rising British star Innes Fitzgerald: 'I started running during lockdown'

Last year she broke Zola Budd's 40-year-old European junior 5,000m record, and now she is getting ready to shake things up at the Commonwealth Games and European championships. Innes Fitzgerald talks to Adharanand Finn about how she first discovered running - like many people - during lockdown, what it was like to be dubbed 'the Greta Thunberg of sport' by The Times newspaper, and how she has her eyes already firmly fixed on LA 2028.

Podcast host Adharanand Finn is the author of three award-winning books, Running with the Kenyans (2012), The Way of the Runner (2014), and the Rise of the Ultra Runners (2019). Follow The Way of the Runner podcast on Instagram: @thewayoftherunner or find it at thewayoftherunner.com

The podcast is supported by Adharanand's Patreon page, which is full of original and exclusive material: patreon.com/adharanandfinn
