The Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games were perhaps two of the most different in recent memory, due largely to the required measures that were put in place in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For most athletes, this meant interrupted, and/or heavily modified preparation, as well as some never before seen competition conditions.

For some insights into these experiences, on this week’s mini-episode, host Sam Robertson sits down with some athletes & staff who recently participated in the Games.

Guest 1: Australian marathon athlete, Liam Adams
Guest 2: Australian Judo athlete, Aoife Coughlan
Guest 3: Team GB Para-cycling performance analyst, Stephanie Blair.
