[Sidebar: We’re dealing with sick kids, bad internet connections and average audio. It must be school holidays. Please bear with us and apologies to Producer Jase! We’ll be back to normal next week.]
Australia’s former ironwoman Bonnie Hancok just circumnavigated Australia in a 10kg surf ski. Just let that sink in for a minute. She paddled over 10,000kms in 8 months and 10 days, and in doing so has raised over $80,00 for Gotcha4Life. And after she broke the record for the fastest circumnavigation and furthest paddle by a female over a 24 hour period, she went on to do another 24 hour paddle to break the men's record, paddling 234kms in 24 hours off Hamilton Island. As well as being in total awe of this, you’ll be able to hear us struggling to deal with her tales of crocodiles and sharks as she travelled around the top end, and about how she was able to keep paddling month after month, despite the fact that she was ready to stop.
In weekly sporting news: Georgie despairs that the Bledisloe Cup was handed to New Zealand via a referee. We wrap up the AFL and NRL, and get cranky about the treatment of NRWL player Caitlin Moran over an Instagram post. We reflect on how you don’t have to be a hard core couch warrior to watch sport, and get excited about the upcoming Basketball World Cup!
Sticking with the theme of boats, Georgie can’t stop talking about Australian solo rower Michelle Lee and her latest challenge to row from the North America to Australia. And despite declaring that she might never go on holiday again, Libby’s pretty stoked about all the kilometers she walked yesterday without even trying.
