In 2016 at the Rio Olympic Games, Vicky Holland became the first British woman to ever win an Olympic Triathlon Medal, when she secured the Bronze Medal in a Sprint Finish with her compatriot and fellow UK based Triathlete, Non Stanford. In addition to that Vicky is a 3x Commonwealth Games medallist and a Member of the Bahrain Endurance 13 Team.

During this episode Vicky shares the highs, the lows and the many learnings. Issues a fantastic physical challenge for the week and survives the physical performance round. We explore Vicky being courted by the sport as a young and promising athlete almost walking away from the sport on several occasions, overcoming a significant 17 and half cm calf tear to get back to the top of the sport, Vicky's top 3 injury tips and Top 3 running tips. Plus Vicky shares around why strength and conditioning in gym work remains such a critical path for athletic preparations. Vicky is a real character and you will really enjoy Vicky's sharings.
