Sally Gunnell

No.

Oh, it was Sally Gunnell.

Sally Gunnell.

Sally Gunnell.

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe Sally Gunnell.

[laughs]

Yeah, they went absolutely, they, they went absolutely crazy and ordered two, um, bowls of rice.

Built and sold and scaled, um, a weight loss, fitness, health business, uh, for multiple seven figures.

Um, has worked with people like, uh, Arsenal Football Club, uh, Pfizer, uh, Ronnie O'Sullivan, Roger Black, Sally Gunnell, sports...

Amazing sports people.

And he's the, the powerhouse, and I'm gonna say this, behind trying to get us all to stop to think more.

So when a ball goes high, it stays and it kind of comes back.

Whereas you kind of towed it, but you hit it low and then you got what's known as a Sally Gunnell, which is a runner.

Now you're making things up now.

No, a Sally Gunnel in golf is called a runner, right? If you hit the ball low and it bobbles on, it's known as a Sally Gunnel.

Um,

yeah, I think it's something I've reflected on a lot because I grew up, um, I remember watching Barcelona Olympics, Linford Christie, Sally Gunnell, Colin Jackson, these guys, and thinking, I want to

do that.

And so getting to a Paralympics, pulling on a GB shirt and thinking, I've done it.

I think it's so funny the way he uses nouns as verbs.

And that I remember when I read, um, I Partridge howling at that, the Sally Gunnell section, that was my standout bit of the whole book.

And I think the line is they, they get drunk on sake and he said, uh, I dared her to hop all the way back to the hotel.

She did.

in, um, '93, I mean, I was under a lot of pressure to win that title courtesy what happened the previous year when I kind of failed dismally at the Olympic Games in 1992.

So to arrive at the World Championships in '93, world leader, um, with Sally Gunnell and Lifa Christie already being the Olympic champions, me supposed to have been Olympic champion and failing, I felt I had a lot to prove.

And so the pressure was most probably cranked up then personally more than ever before because I knew I was capable and good enough, and now I had to deliver and show the world, you know, that I can be a big-time performer under the most pressure.

And so I had run fast.

yeah.

So Sally Gunnell, who lives down the road from me.

I moved to Sussex because of her.

That lady changed my life, you know.
