About this episode
Host Alex Sutton is joined by none other than three-time Olympic gold medalist Tom Dean for a stacked episode you won’t want to miss.
There’s plenty to unpack starting with Tom’s recent outing at World Championships in Singapore, which didn’t exactly go to plan… but why? Tom gives us the inside story.
We dive into his remarkable seven-year journey at the Bath Performance Centre, reflecting on the incredible success he built alongside legendary coach Dave McNulty a partnership that has brought plenty of success to our shores.
Then it’s onto the next chapter: Tom’s first day at his new training base in Stirling. From fresh faces to first impressions, it’s giving first day at school energy swim bag, nerves and all.
Oh… and we had to talk about that photo. You know the one. How did it happen? What was going through his head? We get the full breakdown.
It’s raw, it’s honest, it’s elite sport behind the scenes.
And as always, thank you for listening!
