Listen "Episode 13 - Cat Johnston"
Episode Synopsis
Cat is the Poly's only wheelchair athlete. We talk about her early inspiration Tanni Grey Thompson at Sydney 2000, meeting your hero (and becoming friends!), the not-flat ness of the coast if you're in a chair, the GNR (and holding Mo off until mile 11!), customised chairs and dreams of Berlin. Such a positive and energetic chat in which I learned that there's more similarities than differences between wheelchair racing and running, it's just that the differences are obviously significant. Impossible not to feel positive after hearing this - huge thanks to Cat for coming forward and agreeing to light up this little podcast.
