Refreshing Pod - Livvy Breen (Paralympics GB)
It's the first interview of 2026!
Olivia Breen brings joy and positivity to the podcast, as her & Johnny chat all things athletics.
Starting her journey in 2012 (aged 16) competing at the London games, Olivia is a Welsh Paralympian athlete, who competes for Wales and Great Britain mainly in T38 sprint and F38 long jump events. She's going for gold again this summer at the Commonwealth Games in Scotland.
Johnny get's Livvy's take on what it's like to be a full time athlete on a daily basis, what she hopes to still achieve in her two sports, and what she wants to do when she ends her time on the track & in the sandpit. Plus of course, we look at the current Winter Olympics, and look forward to the Winter Paralympic Games beginning on March 6th.
