It’s time to get motivated by a true great. ‘Silver Bullet’ Marcel Hug takes time from his extraordinary 2021 to discuss the theme of motivation and how it leads to his perfection on and off the track.
The multiple-time Paralympic gold medallist spoke to Andy Stevenson following his victory at the New York Marathon, opening up on what keeps him motivated and how his coach Paul Odermatt’s encouragement continually gets the best out of a man at the very top of the sporting ladder.
