'We never got permission for Great North Run'

Jeff Brown’s Sporting Greats

Available for over a year

The man who changed athletics in the North East forever, Sir Brendan Foster chats about Commonwealth and Olympic games, to European championships and setting world records. As Jeff discovers, despite being behind the greatest half marathon in the World and being one of the most recognised voices in sport, he's stayed incredibly humble and close to his roots.
