On International Women's Day and ahead of her Radio 2 Dare2Tri Challenge for Sport Relief, Rev Kate Bottley talks to some of the most inspirational women in sport. From faith to raw ambition, she finds out what drives them to be the best and what inspiration we can all take from their hard work, self-belief and competitive spirit.
Christine Ohuruogo MBE, former 400m Olympic, World and Commonwealth champion was the second British athlete to win medals at three successive Olympics. 25-year-old swimmer, Ellie Simmonds OBE, has won eight medals including 5 golds at three Paralympic Games.
