The Warm Up Track is back! Season Two starts with a Jamaica Special. We're joined by Olympic 100 hurdles bronze medallist Megan Tapper, and reigning Commonwealth 400 hurdles champion, Janieve Russell.

Who was a Champs Legend?
Who was on course to be an Olympic gymnast?

There's also more serious discussion about why Jamaica's outstanding female sprinters should have been celebrated more during the Usain Bolt years, not just in the years since his retirement.
