Roger Robinson is a writer, journalist, commentator and a runner.
His 2018 book "When Running Made History" is a fascinating dive into his own personal memories with the sport from the 'austerity' Olympic Games that followed the second world war in 1948 to the defiant and celebratory victory of Meb Keflezighi at Boston in 2014.
An accomplished runner himself, with a PB in the marathon of 2:18:41 and still to this day challenges what is possible with running and age.
It was an honour to sit down and pick through some of his incredible experiences.
