From Cancer to Marathon World Record | BBC Radio 1 DJ Adele Roberts

The Running Channel Meets is where we talk to real runners with incredible stories. Each episode we speak with people who inspire us to run and give our guests an opportunity to tell their stories, often for the first time.

In this episode, we chat with Adele Roberts. Adele has faced huge challenges in recent years, battling bowel cancer and living with a stoma. But despite all this, she managed to run a Guinness World Record at the 2023 London Marathon. We discuss what running means to Adele and how it has helped her through these difficult times as well as her new book “Personal Best”.

Topics that we discuss in this episode:
Cancer
Mental Health

The Running Channel Meets was born from The Running Channel podcast. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
