Tokyo 2020 Paralympics: the final week (with Lauren Dewhirst & Rory McSweeney)

That's So Chronic

It’s the final day of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games and we’re back in your ears to give you the down low on the final week!

In this episode we pick up where we left off last Sunday and debrief the week that was for our NZ Paralympians. Of course there’s some fun facts that I’ve learnt along the way including the role of the guides in para sport, as well checking back in with Otago WheelLander and friend of the pod Lauren Dewhirst. I also have some burning questions about the Paralympic medals, and I thought who better to ask than Paralympic bronze medalist Rory McSweeney himself.

**Please note: due to the fast paced nature of piecing this episode together, there are a couple of sound issues that pop up... Please accept my apologies! But I thought you guys are so awesome you would be pretty forgiving!**

And that little favour I asked at the end of the episode… If you enjoyed these Paralympics episodes or learnt something about the Paralympics, I would really appreciate a message either on Instagram @thatssochronic, Facebook facebook.com/thatssochronic or email [e-mail] with a short testimonial. I’m officially starting my campaign to get a media pass at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games you see, and every little piece of feedback is super helpful in trying to make that happen!

See you on Tuesday as we start back with our regular Tuesday interviews!

Thanks for listening, you really are the best!! <3
