This year marks Women in Sport’s 40th anniversary and we've relaunched our podcast!
This week the world’s top athletes will gather in Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games.
Few of us will ever know what its like to represent our country in elite sport. Fewer still will know the feeling of standing on the podium whilst the national anthem plays.
Joanna Rowsell MBE knows exactly what this is like. She has two gold medals - one from London in 2012 and the other from Rio in 2016 – both in the Team Pursuit.
Add to that, five World Championship titles, multiple World Cup Gold medals and a standing world record, also in Team Pursuit.
Presenter: Julia George
Watch and listen to the BBC commentary of Joanna's moment of Olympic glory:
