Podcast of the Day's Podcast

In this episode Lauren sits down with British Sanctional athlete and ICU Doctor Carys Webster to chat about her journey in CrossFit. With her medical career and functional fitness training developing side by side, Carys made the courageous decision to press pause on her formal medical training to 'give CrossFit a go' full time and her decision was proved correct with a top 10 finish a year later at CrossFit Strength in Depth. However everything changed when Covid -19 hit. Now juggling a full time training schedule under the watchful eye of Phil Mansfield at Red Pill Training and a part time role in the ICU of a London hospital, Carys is still managing to compete at the sharp end of the CrossFit spectrum whilst also saving lives. She is the absolute definition of girl boss, how does she manage it all? Listen to the podcast. ****FULL VOD CAST EPISODE WILL BE AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE**** You can follow Carys on Instagram HERE .

Prior to the Covid-19 lockdown in the UK, Lauren sat down with the National Champion of Ireland PD Savage to talk about his journey to qualifying for the CrossFit Games. Already a seasoned Regionals athlete, PD came back from an injury during the 2019/20 season to take the top spot on the Irish leaderboard but that didn't come without a fight. The mental stress of qualifying for the pinnacle of the sport doesn't go unnoticed by the 30 year old, as he speaks about his social media black out during the Open and the pressure he put himself under to realise his goals. His family play an important part in his journey, as does his coach Neil Laverty of SYSTM training, all of whom contributed to his success. This podcast acts as a reminder of the sacrifices athletes make to get to the top and the devotion they need to get there. Plus PD is an all-round nice guy and a podcast king.
