It's time to jump back on your bike here on Off The Podium as we return to the sport of cycling by speaking with Aussie track cyclist Kristina Clonan about her incredible career and hopes for the Olympics in Paris! We learn from Kristina just how she went from a promising young track & field star into endurance cycling and how then that brought about a switch to her current discipline of sprint cycling. We also learn just how the disappointment of not making the Tokyo Olympics helped spur her towards her current level of success and which moment really helped propel her towards an world beating attitude. Added to this we find out about her Commonwealth Games experiences in 2022, why she loves cycling so much even when she's not competing and how the movie 'Napoleon Dynamite' is a bit of a sore spot for her. It's a fun and informative chat that you simply can't miss!
