After the United States imposed arguably the ‘toughest ever’ sanctions on Iran, American-Iranian football coach Katayoun Khosrowyar says the US and Iran’s increasingly unstable relationship could harm the future of women’s football in the country. Katayoun describes the two as having a ‘love-hate relationship’, and admits it’s painful to see two countries so close to her heart in conflict. We hear from the 23-year-old Australian who is completing the Four Deserts Grand Slam. The series consists of the Sahara, the Gobi March, the Atacama Crossing and the Last Desert in Antarctica. Each desert race is 250 kilometres long and has to be completed within seven days. Jacqui Bell is three quarters of the way through and reveals how she’s been pushing herself to the limit. England footballer Molly Bartrip describes how a voice inside her head took control of her life and ‘played her like a puppet’ during her battle with anorexia as a teenager. Molly tells Katie Falkingham how she overcame the illness and reveals that being recalled to the England squad after her recovery was the ‘best feeling in the world.’ South Africa cricketer Laura Wolvaardt has a very important, career-defining choice to make. The 19-year-old, who is the youngest South African to score a century in one-day internationals and the youngest woman to score 1,000 runs in ODIs, has deferred her place to study medicine at university so she can continue playing cricket, but that year is coming to an end. As the ICC Women’s World Twenty20 gets underway, Laura tells Sportshour she’s hoping to defer for another year and carry on breaking records for the Proteas. The first ever Running World Cup begins next week and absolutely anyone from any country from around the world can get involved, regardless of ability level. From professional athletes, to keen amateur runners or even complete beginners, every one that runs will make a big contribution towards their country’s final position on the leaderboard. You can even compete in your own back garden! It's all measured using a special mobile running app and even eight-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt is taking part as Jamaica captain. Nick Beresford is the CEO of the event sponsor and explains what this unique phenomenon is all about. (Photo: Katayoun Khosrowyar. Credit: Getty Images)

Natasha Sekulic is an overachiever. A young, ambitious Australian woman who is mild mannered lawyer by day an adventure seeking, limit pushing, kick ass ultrarunner by night.    Having no athletic background at all, she decided to run a half marathon to deal with the grief from a bad break up. Shortly after that, she was diagnosed with bipolar. In 2013, she took the plunge and entered the Big Red Run, a 250km multistage race across the Simpson Desert. From that day forward, she has used ultra running to help manage her depression and has chosen to be defined by possibilities rather than labels or limitations. She has run over twenty ultramarathons including three 250km multistage events (the Big Red Run, the Atacama Crossing, and the Patagonia roving race). She has also run two 100 milers - the Zion 100 and the Hubert 100. Natashas journey has not been as easy one but it has been an empowering one. Find out why she thinks multi day stage racing is the ultimate sport not only for the athletic challenge but for how it can change and impact your psyche, your self imposed limitations and your possibilities and why the comradeship found out there on the trails and deserts is so valuable to her We would also like to thank the sponsors of this show.  Running Hot Coaching:  The online training platform run by Lisa Tamati and Neil Wagstaff.  Do you have a dream to run a big race, maybe a half marathon, a marathon or even an ultramarathon?
