Ian and Johnny welcome back Spartan Pro Athletes Lou Guenier and Chris Davis who were on the UAP podcast a year ago.

Lou discusses his recent Spartan Beast Races races in Andorra and Morzine and how his training has progressed under his new coach Jon Albon.

Chris discusses he benefits of having a schedule and how he has untaken some new unique challenges during COVID including a 50km trial with his dog, Pumpkin.

  

World V40 400m Champion Gavin Stephens joins Ian to discuss their highlights and best takes from the Athletics programme at Tokyo 2020.

Former GB International and Sports Agent, Mike Skinner, joins Ian to debate whether Karsten Warholm's 400m Hurdles World Record is the greatest all time performance in Athletics.

Ian discusses the highlights of the athletics programme so far, including both the men's and women's 100m finals with former Scottish Senior and Great Britain Under 23 International Jon Oparka.

Ian welcomes back former guest, British Triathlete Ant Gritton to review the men's and women's individual triathlon and preview the mixed team relay.

Usually injury, choking on the big stage or a false start may be the unfortunate reasons why a medal contender fails to Unlock their Athletic Potential but this year the COVID factor could be the reason.
