So was I Galaxy because tackling the inequality women face from trans women competing against them was something he was determined to deal with.

I saw Sebastian Coe speak after a dinner some years ago. I've seldom heard anyone so egotistical, puffed up or cock sure. People were squirming. Such a relief when he sat down.

I always thought Coe seemed too full of himself. Bit like Lineker.

I was hopeful that Coe would get it but let's wait and see what she does.

Kirsty Coventry, an Olympic gold medallist in swimming, has been elected as President of the IOC, a role that Lord Coe wanted.
Kirsty is the first woman and African to hold the most powerful position in sport.
I hope she tackles the inequality for women in sport and finds a way for all genders to compete fairly.
