Listen now
Description
In this episode, we sit down with the incredible Liz Clay, a full time athlete with her main event being the 100m hurdles. She has been in the sport for about 10 years and professionally for 5 years. Liz grew up in Sydney and in 2016 decided to move to the Gold Coast to pursue track seriously under coach Sharon Hannan. Liz has been through many highs and some big lows with injuries over the years. For the first few seasons Liz felt like she would take 1 step forward and 5 steps backwards whenever making any progress. However she focused on her goal, worked on her mindset and trained smarter rather than harder. Last year in Melbourne Liz had the best moment of her career to date when she ran her PB of 12.94 seconds in the 100m hurdles. Liz has hopes that next year will be the year to make the olympics, she is working endlessly to achieve this goal. Liz is an inspiration to many young athletes. She is focused, determined and centered, we loved chatting to her about the food she eats for fuel, her training regime, tips and tricks for building endurance and how she maintains her strong mindset even through difficult periods of adversity.
