Medals & Mics

Every successful journey is different, however more often than not there are similar moments when you need to take ownership and make the tough decisions that best suit you. This week David, Derval and Rob share the moments they realised they needed to make changes in order to pursue their dreams - from the key people in their corners to the environments required to perform at an elite level.

When you work so hard for that one moment, it goes well or it doesn’t, either way the hangover can hurt! From elation to embarrassment, the front runner to the also ran, the aftermath can sting! On this week’s episode David, Derval & Rob share their experiences of the post Olympics hangover and how it shaped their future decisions.

David, Derval & Robert chat about turning the dream of qualifying for an Olympics into reality. They discuss how that journey was different for all of them and what they learned from it.

Derval, David and Rob discuss how their lives in sport began and reflect on what made them want to chase the dream of competing for Ireland at an Olympic Games.

Medals & Mics with Derval O’Rourke, David Gillick and Rob Heffernan is a podcast that looks inside the life of three people who spent 2 decades trying to be their best on a global sporting stage. From winning World and European titles to competing at 9 Olympic Games to then creating new lives outside of sport. This podcast discusses the lessons learnt and how they can be applied to everyday life. Podcast Produced By Take Nine Studio
