Not many international athletes have had the opportunity to compete in Japan over the last 12 months. But George Peasegood is just back from the Triathlon World Series in Yokohama.

George Peasegood is a British paratriathlete aiming to be at the Tokyo Paralympics this summer. And he gave his chances a massive boost with a win!

George talks about the race and the whole logistics of competing in Japan - which is a fascinating insight.

About the Podcast

Destination Tokyo
Olympic and Paralympic stories in the run up to the Tokyo Games.
I’ve covered 5 Olympic and 5 Paralympic Games at home and abroad. Tokyo 2020 was to have been numbers 6. So how are the athletes preparing during Covid times. And what are they learning in the run up to the Games. The Podcast lasts around 10 mins and comes out daily, Monday to Friday. I’m also using it to raise money for Maggie’s Cancer Centres to thank them for the help they’ve given my wife and family during her bowel cancer journey.
