Episode 333 - Erin Aldrich-Shean Interview

from Off The Podium - An Olympics Podcast · host Ben Waterworth

We always love chatting to athletes on the show who specialise in one sport, but what about an athlete who has reached the pinnacle in two? That's exactly what we're bringing you today as we speak with American Olympian Erin Aldrich-Shean about her unique career in both high jump and volleyball and her drive to reach the top in both sports! We find out from Erin just how that usual childhood ability to play multiple sports made her into a two-sport athlete and what moment in her youth made her driven to become an Olympian. We also find out which other sport she competed in helped her with her abilities in both volleyball and high jump and just how her height played a part. Added to this we learn more about just why the unique timing of the Sydney Olympics affected her performance, how close she came to appearing in multiple Olympic Games and finding out just which sport of her two was her ultimate favourite. It's an incredible and insightful chat that we know you'll love! So get to listening!
