Competing in two different sports - George Peasegood, Paralympics GB Cycling and Triathlon
Listen now
Description
George Peasegood is going for a unique treble at the Paralympics in Tokyo this summer. George has qualified for the para-triathlon and for the road race and time trial in cycling. He's going to have a mad week in the intense heat and humidity of Tokyo. George talks about competing in all three events and how he's preparing including time in the heat chamber. He comes across as very laid back about it all in a matter of fact way that makes it sound easy. It's not, of course! George has been charting his training since January and we wish him all the best with his final preparations. Thanks for listening!
