  • Camille Herron, Ultra-runner

    Camille Herron, Ultra-runner
    2022/03/14
    Oklahoma native Camille Herron spends her life breaking records in Ultra-distance running so it may not have come as a surprise to her followers when she recently broke her own women’s world record in the Jackpot 100/US Championship in Las Vegas. That she won in 12 hours, 41 minutes and 11 seconds, averaging around 7:37 minutes per mile was impressive enough but this was only the second time a woman had won (Ann Trason was the first to do it, winning the 1989 US 24Hr Championship) but Camille completed in 2022 almost a minute and a half faster than her previous record in 2017. Camille is the first and only athlete to win all three of the International Association of Ultrarunners' 50K, 100K, and 24 Hour World Championships. She says winning the 2017 Comrades Marathon was the highlight of her career of which she is most proud. She is the first and only woman to run under 13 hours for 100 miles, exceed 150 km for 12-Hours, and to reach 270km for 24Hrs. And there are a string of other records to her name. From surviving the 1999 Oklahoma tornado when her family lost their home to overcoming multiple injuries, her cheerful and positive outlook has carried her through. We can expect many more records as she fine tunes her preparation and lifestyle in pursuit of her goals laying down the challenge for future generations of women in the sport.

  • Jessica Klimkait, Judoka

    Jessica Klimkait, Judoka
    2022/02/07
    Our guest is Canadian Judoka Jessica Klimkait. Jess grew up in Whitby, Ontario and followed in her brother Justin’s footsteps when she began to learn Judo at the age of four at the Ajax Budokan Judo Club, in nearby Ajax. Her former coach of 13 years was the club’s chief instructor Kevin Doherty; a two-time Olympian. At the age of 19 Jess moved to the Canadian Team Training Center in Montreal. She has been on Team Canada since 2014 where she competed in the 2015 Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China finishing fifth in the 63kg division. In the same year, Jess competed in her first IJF World Tour event at the Zagreb Grand Prix before taking part at her first two IJF Junior World Championships. She established herself in the senior ranks in 2017 by winning gold at the Pan American Championships before earning her first Grand Slam podium when claiming bronze in Ekaterinburg. Jess became the second Canadian to win a world title in judo at the 2021 IJF World Championships in Budapest. In her Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020, Jess won the bronze medal in the 57kg category, becoming the first Canadian woman to win an Olympic medal in judo. She is passionate about encouraging girls to take up combat sports, which she has found develops confidence and a body positive attitude. Jess also explains ways to reduce the drop-out rates of teenage girls in sport.

  • Temi Fagbenle Aims High

    Temi Fagbenle Aims High
    2021/11/19
    Basketball fans will immediately recognize the skills of Team GB Olympian Temi Fagbenle, and those who have yet to know her will soon discover that she is a multi-faceted and multi-talented woman. Her relentless drive to win on the court is only matched by her ambitions on the cat walk, in the board room and on a set. It soon becomes apparent that she is not content with just her sporting achievements. Her other passions also fuel her drive, which aligns with her desire to inspire young girls and women, to encourage them to create their own pathway to realize their own dreams. Temi’s story is by no measure ordinary—that’s not her style—she has always been a high achiever from NBA to Olympian, USC to Harvard. One of 12 children born to Nigerian parents in Baltimore, Maryland, Temi was raised to believe in herself, to be a confident woman. She was always told she was beautiful and she exudes that inner strength which she hopes will encourage girls and women to feel body positive. She is, in short, a role model for all girls and women in sport, and in life, an example of how women can orchestrate their own inspirational journey… and it’s easy to be inspired by Temi. With the Paris 2024 Olympic Games her main focus, Temi is determined to complete some unfinished business. Team GB missed out on qualifying for the Rio and Tokyo Games, which is still an open wound. And while Olympic qualifications have just begun, she is also jetting back and forth to play for her league team at Çukurova Basketbol in Turkey. All this while running a fledgling business, along with her other off-court pursuits as a model, actress and UN women partner. This was a conversation I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
