In his quest to define 'sporting greatness', double Olympic
champion Alistair Brownlee has spent nearly 4 years interviewing
and training with some of the greatest minds in sport to discover
what it takes to become - and remain - a champion. Featuring: Ian
Botham * Mark Cavendish * Alastair Cook * Alex Danson * Richard
Dunwoody * Donna Fraser * Chris Froome * Anna Hemmings * Denis
Irwin * Michael Johnson * Kilian Jornet * Stuart Lancaster * AP
McCoy * Ronnie O'Sullivan * Michael Owen * Adam Peaty * Ian Poulter
* Paula Radcliffe * Ian Thorpe * Mark Webber * Shane Williams From
an early age Alistair Brownlee has been obsessed with being the
very best, and not just improving his sporting performance across
his three specialist triathlon disciplines of swimming, cycling and
running, but also understanding how a winner becomes a dominant
champion. Winning gold in consecutive Olympic Games has only
strengthened this need and desire. Over the last 4 years Alistair
has been on a journey to learn from the best, talking to elite
figures across multiple sports as well as leading thinkers and
scientists, to understand what enabled these remarkable individuals
to rise to the very top, and to push the limits of human capability
in their relentless pursuit of perfection. Alistair uses these
fascinating interviews, along with extensive research, to explore a
range of sports and environments - athletics, cycling, football,
rugby, horseracing, hockey, cricket, golf, motor racing, snooker,
swimming and ultra-running - to reveal how talent alone is never
enough and how hard work, pain, pressure, stress, risk, focus,
sacrifice, innovation, reinvention, passion, ruthlessness, luck,
failure and even a lockdown can all play a crucial part in honing a
winning mentality and achieving sustained success.
