ESPN is showcasing the 23 athletes featured in ESPN The Magazine’s ninth annual BODY Issue with a TV special, which will highlight behind the scenes photo, video and interview elements.

ESPN launched the BODY franchise almost a decade ago to celebrate and showcase the athletic form through images and interviews. The one-hour show is hosted by ESPN commentator Julie Foudy, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and former US Women’s National Soccer team captain, and centres around a main theme of ‘Every Body Has a Story’, where athletes share their respective personal and professional journeys.
