It has been a wonderful summer of athletics and running, with some outstanding performances from English athletes on the biggest stage of all – in Paris at the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Pat Gallagher: 56 years of service to athletics and counting

Pat was too shy to join an athletics club when she was younger, but was encouraged to do so by her schoolteacher and since then has had a lot of success in the sport. We caught up with her to discuss her journey through the sport, especially as a masters athlete and what coaching means to her.
