Olympic cycling champion Victoria Pendleton joins Jenni Falconer for the latest episode of Routes, the podcast from LNER, where she reflects on the journeys that have shaped her life, from childhood cycling tours with her dad and travelling the world as an elite athlete, to embracing adventure simply for the joy of it after retirement.

LNER is offering additional ‘suppawt’ for customers travelling with four-legged friends following the appointment of 'Pet Champions'. The station colleagues will be the go-to staff members for support. 

LNER is preparing to welcome thousands of customers onboard its services for next month's Great North Run with the announcement of extra train services.
