Off The Podium - An Olympics Podcast - A podcast by Ben Waterworth, Colin Hilding & Jarrod Loobeek - Thursdays

As we get closer and closer to the Beijing Olympics it's time to chat with another athlete who is set to compete at the games as we speak with Australian Skeleton racer Nick Timmings about his journey in the sport and his hopes for his first ever Olympics! We find out from Nick just how he got into the sport and how he remembers those first moments of getting on a sled and the adrenaline addiction it created for him. We also find out just what unique training he has to do in order to compete at the top level and why he prefers certain types of tracks over others around the world. Added to this we also learn more about his love of collecting an iconic video game console, why he wants to bring Baby Yoda with him to a desert island and just why there might be some penguins featured on his sled in Beijing. It's an amazing chat that will get you deep into the Olympic zone ahead of the games, so get to listening and get entertained!
