In this episode we head back indoors to Ponds Forge for some competitive swimming. And boy was it competitive, with actual world records being set.

We've all had a go at swimming but these competitors are called masters for a reason. Hear about the event, Rikki's unwanted interruption and as always we will rank the atmosphere, food and drink, venue and the action.

Join Joe and Rikki as we discuss whether snakes can swim and what a psycho swimmer would be like.

Four down, thirty six to go.

We hit the trail to see the fearless, fast and fun sport of downhill mountain biking.

You'll hear about our own biking mishaps, why we were watching nervously and hear about Sheffield's biggest sporting superstar you've never heard of.

As usual we'll rank the food, the atmosphere, the venue and the action.

Join Joe and Rikki for probably the only event we'll visit that finishes in a massive bomb crater.

Three down, thirty seven to go.

This time we head to The Climbing Works to experience the International Festival

You'll hear how we missed out on both pizza and the best seat in the house, our attempt to get to grips with the scoring system and how starting upside down is apparently the way to go.

From elite athletes making the impossible look easy to us two making the easy look impossible, join us for episode two.

Two down, thirty eight to go.

What better place to start than Sheffield FC, the oldest football club in the world.

Join us as we head to the home of football to experience the game as it should be, with a pint, a pie and close enough to hear every shout and feel every tackle.

Hear all about the game, a familiar name on the team sheet, the aggro and more. We will also rank the atmosphere, venue, food and drink as well as the game on our Sporty Forty scorecard.

One down, thirty nine to go.

Welcome to The Sporty Forty, the podcast where two enthusiastic sports fans, Joe and Rikki, attempt to see 40 different sports before we hit 40.

In this episode we talk a little about how the idea came about, what counts as a sport and how on earth we are going to go about doing it.

If you're into sports, Sheffield or listening to two blokes wondering what is going on then this is the podcast for you.
