Going for Gold podcast: Brittney Reese eager to defend gold in Rio

Paste BN Sports' Rachel Axon has a chat with American long jumper and defending Olympic gold medalist Brittney Reese.

Reese divulges what it's going to take to be the event's first woman to win back-to-back golds, how she was mentally able to overcome injuries and retirement ponderings, and what it has been like being a first-time mother while balancing her already-hectic schedule.
