The Olympics in Paris ends this weekend – as it gears up for the Paralympics. But what legacy does such a huge event leave for athletes and a host city? Team GB's Jess Roberts won a bronze in the cycling women's team pursuit, but she almost quit the sport because of injury. She joins Matt Barbet alongside Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, one of Britain's greatest Paralympic athletes, to discuss how athletes reset mentally and physically after the games. Plus, Rob Harris, our sports correspondent speaks with Matt from Paris, to discuss what future Olympic cities will learn from Paris.
