#25 - Kate Grey on representing Team GB at the Paralympics, and transitioning from swimming into BBC sports reporting and mentoring

HY3RID Podcast

In today’s episode, we have a very special guest, Kate Grey. Kate is a former paralympic swimmer and current BBC sports reporter and mentor. Kate represented team Great Britain for ten years. During that time she competed at European Championships, World Championships and the 2008 Beijing Paralympics.

Kate tells us her story, from the devastating moment she sliced her left hand off in a sausage machine at 2 years old to becoming a Paralympic gold medal contender for London 2012. From the highs of competing in Beijing 2008 to burnout and glandular fever, dealing with the disappointment of missing out on qualifying by 0.5 seconds and transitioning out of full time sports.
