Shownotes

Ali Jawad was 15 when he was asked if he'd become a drugs cheat or be a clean athlete. The question came from his coach, who was making a very powerful point. And since then the Paralympic Powerlifter has championed clean sport.

Ali's finally got some competition. Lockdown and his recovery from Crohn's Disease has left him with so few opportunities over the last 5 years. But he's preparing for a qualification tournament next month.

These podcasts are released Monday to Friday. If you'd like to leave me a small 'tip' as an appreciation - I'm raising money for Maggie's Cancer Centres.
