Switzerland’s Jolanda Neff reflects on winning the gold medal in the cross-country mountain bike event at the Tokyo Olympics. Neff and her team-mates made history as Switzerland won all three medals in the event. The 28-year-old says it will take some time to comprehend what they have achieved. Neff also tells us how she broke her hand just six weeks before the Olympics and explains how she did not start riding and jumping her bike again until she arrived in Japan.

We look ahead to the women’s 100m final with the 2004 Olympic silver medallist Lauryn Williams. The former USA star tells us how to execute the perfect race, recalls how she felt winning an Olympic medal and gives us her thoughts on what gymnast Simone Biles has been through this week. Biles pulled out of the women’s team final to protect her mental health and Williams believes the situation will shine a spotlight on athlete welfare.

We also hear from former USA swimmer Ella Eastin on the pressure elite athletes are under, South Africa’s first black female Olympic gymnast Caitlin Rooskrantz and the BBC’s Ade Adedoyin is with us throughout the programme with all the latest news on day eight of the Olympics.

Plus, Sporting Witness heads back to the London 2012 Olympics to tell the story of 400m runner Zamzam Farah. Having grown up in war-torn Somalia, even reaching the Games was a huge personal achievement.
