ChampPain with Pippa Laverty
Getting to the top in your sport is never easy. There no bubbles without first some troubles. I’ve experienced this first hand whilst supporting my husband race motorcycles in both the World Superbike and MotoGP championships.
There is a whole network of people around an athlete. I’m lucky enough to be in a position to meet both the athletes and the interesting group of people who work alongside them.
In each podcast I interview these inspirational people about their roles and where this journey in sport has taken them.
