Kuvaus

Welcome back to another episode of Campbells and Co. This episode Cate and Bronte chat about the marathon world record. Kenyan Sebastian Sawe crossed the London marathon finish line in a staggering 1:59.30 - that’s an average running speed of 21km/h. . However, that was not the only extraordinary feat that race. Ethiopia’s Yomif Kejelcha was only 11 second behind Sawe, running 1:59.41 in his London marathon debut. After the race, Sebastian Sawe was pictured holding up his shoes - which caused controversy when they were first released as critics claim it gave runners too much of a boost.  It raises the question, with not one but two men breaking the two hour barrier for the first time in an official race, was it the shoe technology that led to this feat? Or was the 2 hour marathon barrier a psychological barrier that once crossed, opens the door for others to follow? Let us know, we’d love to hear your thoughts. We hope you enjoy this episode of Campbells & Co.

Are tennis players getting too greedy? And why was every Olympian mad last week?

This week on the show Cate and Bronte unpack all the drama from the French Open. From crowning two new Grand Slam champions 19 year old Mirra Andreeva and 29 year old Alexander Zverev. Both athletes had very different journeys to their maiden slam wins and reminded us that sport is not predictable and that’s why we love it so much. Bronte and Cate then delve into the revenue share debate at the French Open which leads to a heated discussion about whether Olympians should be paid prize money. It’s a juicy topic, let us know what you think. Thanks for listening!

Enhanced Games Update and Parenting Elite Athletes

This week on the podcast Cate and Bronte have a little chuckle at the absolute flop that was the Enhanced Games. Bronte reckons she could jump in the pool now, busted ACL and all and still swim faster than the 4th place getter in the women’s 100m freestyle. The main topic this week is around parenting elite athletes. It’s rare to have one Olympian in a family - let alone two. So what did Mr and Mrs Campbell do to instill excellence, dedication and perseverance in their children? The answer might surprise you. If you like the show, be sure to send it to a friend or family member. Thanks for listening!

Dating as an elite athlete.

Welcome back to another episode of Campbells and Co. It’s a rough old dating world out there - but it can be even more tricky to date as an elite athlete. There is the sports bubble, the restrictive lifestyle, the all-encompassing nature of pursuing an Olympic dream, traveling for months at a time and not having a ‘normal’ work schedule.  Cate and Bronte share their own experiences with dating and bust a few myths along the way. If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend (or partner). We hope you enjoy this episode of Campbells & Co.
