Summary

Welcome back the The Great Desert Challenge mini series. Today I'm joined by Rose Harvey, who's running for Team GB at the Olympics - despite only taking up running professionally in 2020 after she was made redundant from her job as a corporate lawyer. She's utterly talented and inspiring, so whether you’re a runner or not - I know you will absolutely love Rose’s story and be inspired by the idea that you can achieve anything you put your mind to.
