The latest episode to be uploaded to the Maximise Potential Podcast is an incredibly inspiring interview with David Weir, Great Britain’s Top Wheelchair Racer who has completely re-written the record books within the sport.
This phenomenal racer has won four London Marathons, three of those consecutively. At the 2008 Beijing Paralympics, he won two golds, a silver and a bronze. He holds every single British record from the sprints to the marathon, plus numerous world records AND to top it all off he has an MBE.
Yet when I had the opportunity to meet with David after his regular morning training session in Richmond Park, I was taken aback by how down-to-earth and humble he is – and how different the off-the-track David Weir is to the on-the-track person.
Here is our unique opportunity to learn more about the highs and lows of David’s career, what drives him to be a winner and his goals for London 2012 and beyond.
