About this episode
In the first of a few bonus episodes from a recent trip to Kenya, Ben spoke to Peres Jepchirchir as she filmed a documentary about her life, visiting the town where she grew up.
Ben and Peres discuss the importance of family and community and how running isn't just about running fast, her ambitions to run more world records and what she wants her legacy to be.
