So, who's Britain's best ever woman swimmer? Rebecca Adlington won double gold at the Beijing Olympics to announce her international status. She followed it up with two bronze medals in London four years later.
I sat in on Becky's interview with the Her Spirit podcast presented by Louise Minchin and Annie Emmerson. You can hear the full 45 mins here: https://pod.fo/e/c503b
Becky talks about the pressure she felt in London in 2012 and why she decided to retire in 2013 aged 23.
She also reveals the nerves she felt for days before competing and how she dealt with it.
