Sophie Raworth talks to Jeremy Bowen
Running on Air: From BBC Headlines to Life-Changing Finish Lines
– Global Stage
Colleagues and friends Sophie Raworth and Jeremy Bowen discuss Raworth’s inspiring – and dramatic – journey from the BBC Breakfast sofa to pounding the pavements as a marathon runner.
Raworth, one of the BBC’s main evening news presenters, took up running in her 40s, and her first marathon was almost a disaster when she collapsed and was treated for heatstroke. Since then, she has completed all seven World Marathon Majors, and run ten ultra-marathons, including the 150-mile Marathon des Sables across the Sahara Desert.
Raworth talks to Bowen about discovering her love for running, and how it helped her with challenges from losing loved ones to interviewing the Prime Minister.
