    Episode 51 - Blake Leeps for the Olympics

    USA Track & Field Paralympian Blake Leeper, a T62 classification double amputee with both silver and bronze medals, is also an Olympic hopeful. He's embarked on a journey to prove maybe an impossible thing - that his legs don't actually give him an advantage competing with able-bodied athletes. You might be asking: Wasn't this already proven by the infamous Oscar Pistorius? You might think so, but there's a lot more to the story.

Plus, we give a shout out to Joe Delagrave for his weekly Captain's Chat series on Facebook, Melissa Stockwell's book release. (Can you guess which other Inside ParaSport guest was involved in that?) Finally, we look forward to the next 50 episodes. U.S. Listeners: If you are contemplating suicide, or are worried about a friend/family member call the Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.

    Episode 46 - Evan Slides into a Team Sport

    Evan O'Hanlon, a wildly successful Paralympic Track & Field sprinter now aiming to make Olympic history, is our first Australian guest. We chat with him (pre-Covid) about the state of the Paralympic movement in Australia and his move to the Czech Republic. He reveals why this all seems (mostly) perfectly normal to his wife and family. He talks about being on a team sport, trying to keep his disability a secret from his new mates and coaches, and how he adapts to compete with athletes who do not have a disability.
