When was your first swim, bike and run? How did you get on in the very first race? How to balance school, studying and Triathlon? And an elite journey from youth to senior.

In a special edition of the podcast, produced on behalf of British Triathlon, Growing up Tri-ing speaks to three Olympic and Paralympic Podium Potential athletes to find out all the answers and their experiences.

Hear Sophie Coldwell on her jump from the talent squad and the realisation that 'wow someone thinks I'm quite good here!'. Ben Dijkstra reveals how he's learnt from the experience of nearly missing out on a Youth Olympic gold medal and George Peasgood explains how sometimes the toughest conversations he has are with his university lecturers!
