About this episode

A few months ago, sprinter Dina Asher-Smith was coming off her first individual gold in the World Championships and had her sights set on Tokyo. But now that the 2020 Olympics are the 2021 Olympics, she’s had to adjust her training on the fly. On this episode, the fastest British woman ever tells us how she’s negotiating her new normal while training at home, why she mentors young girls—but won’t let them beat her in a race—and why sometimes taking things slow is the best way to get faster.
