Alex Yee

If you flash back to the excitement of Tokyo’s Olympic Games, well you may well recall screaming at the television when Team GB were out there on the triathlon course. One of those triathletes making us all incredibly proud was Alex Yee. It was his first Olympic Games, he was selected only a few weeks prior to competing yet he returned home with 2 shiny medals! In this episode of RunPod, Jenni and Alex discuss the running fitness of a triathlete as well as the training required. They also chat about the fact that Alex really loves running, he’s even completing a 5k faster than Sir Mo Farah at the same age. In fact, Alex is so good at a 5k, he also holds the record as the fastest parkrunner…how quick? Well you need to listen to find out! A great episode which will leave you in awe, inspired and intent on getting out for a run yourself. Enjoy.
