Bad Boy Running Ep 190 - The Untold Story Of The 13 Year Old Who Broke The Marathon Record
When you were 13, what did you get up to?
PlayStation? Football? Hanging out doing nothing with your pals?
In other words, not much.
Well... we bet you weren't breaking marathon world records, were you?
Prepare yourself for a fascinating one, Do-Badder.
In this episode, Jody and David speak to Maureen Wilton, aka "Mighty Moe" whose untold story of how she achieved the incredible feat of breaking the world marathon record when she was just 13 is only now being told.
They're joined by Rachel Swaby, author of the book, Mighty Moe who explains exactly what happened and why the record was never made official... despite being officially recorded.
This really is one to be heard to be believed.
Enjoy!
