Back on 4 September 2020 I had the distinct honour to speak to the galloping granny Mavis Hutchinson who, in the 1970s, ran from the west coast of the US to the east coast. I was in South Africa when she did this and recall the headline news across the country about South Africa's "Galloping granny". This was the last interview Mavis did - she passed away a few months after we spoke - Mavis was in her 90s. A remarkable and much loved woman. The interview starts with me talking to her grandson Rob.
