World Record holder, Nike Athlete and Paralympic podium potential - this week we welcome back to the podcast Jaryd Clifford (@jarydclifford).
In what has been a Summer of stellar form for this young gun, Jaryd has not only got the taste of victory in some of the best races Victoria has to offer at Vic Milers - but also broken the World Record in the T/12 and Paralympic 1500m (3:42.97) at Zatopek.
After what has been a crazy year for all, this was a great opportunity to see how one athlete has made it work for them!
In this episode Jaryd discuss his current form and Olympic ambitions - not to mention its uncertainty - his move to Canberra and how it’s worked for him, all while balancing Uni and athletic demands, plus the demands of his vision.
But most inspiringly, Jaryd touches on the current state of Para running and Australian athletics. Having recently signed with Nike, Jaryd shares just how important, necessary and significant the support that brands and fans are devoting to Para sport.
With the humility, drive and talent that he possesses - it’s no stretch to say we’re excited to watch him take the podium at Tokyo.
Be sure not to miss him racing the Box Hill Burn 5000m this Tuesday (02/03) by tuning into the Athletics Exclusive livestream on YouTube.
