Broken Oars, Episode 34: Drew Ginn - The Art And Practice Of Pushing The Limits - a podcast by brokenoarspodcast

Drew Ginn is a five-time world rowing champion, four-time Olympian, triple Olympic champion (and silver medallist in one of the greatest Men's Coxless Four Finals in history); member of Australia's original Oarsome Foursome, and recipient of the rowing's Thomas Keller Medal; as well as an inductee into Sport Australia's Hall of Fame.

 

Beyond the medals, the statistics, the awards and the plaudits, Drew is, quite simply, a legend of the sport of rowing, described by triple Olympic champion Andrew Triggs-Hodge as Australia's equivalent of Sir Steve Redgrave and the opponent he lost most sleep over.

 

This episode of Broken Oars Podcast was a long time in the making (over a year). But we think you'll find, like us, that it was worth the wait. We sat down with an icon and ended up talking to one of the most passionate, knowledgeable, approachable and creative people we've ever met. Drew's desire to learn, share and engage, alongside his curiosity and passion, simply burns through every moment of this episode.
