:: ::

Michael Milton knows all about fear, self-doubt, bravery and courage.

After losing his leg to bone cancer at the age of 8, he has gone onto become one of Australia’s most talented, decorated and all-round athletes.

He is a 5x Paralympic Gold Medalist who has competed in 6 Paralympic Games, both in Winter for skiing and in Summer for cycling.

 

Michael also holds World Records for speed skiing and for the fastest marathon on crutches. And he’s also summited Kilimanjaro and walked the Kokoda track twice.

In this conversation, we discuss:

- what it’s like to ski over 200km/hr (132mph),

- his experience with fear, self-doubt and the Imposter Complex,

- why he’s entered many races over the years knowing he’ll finish last,

- why you should keep pushing forward when your instinct is telling you to back off, and

- his experience competing in the Ultra-Trail Australia 50km race in 2017.
