When she was a young woman Ezinne Okparaebo moved from Nigeria to Norway where she developed a love for athletics. She became Norweigian 100 metres champion when she was 18 and since then she has held the national 100 metres title for 13 out of 14 years. She's competed in the last three Summer Olympics and divides her time now between competing and developing Ezinne Athletics, a programme to encourage young girls from different ethnic backgrounds in Norway to get involved in sport. She talks to us about her career, faith and life as a role model promoting sport to young people.
