[VAULT] Shirin Gerami on the Privilege of Sport and Breaking Down Barriers - a podcast by Jen Brown - Running and Triathlon Coach, Author and Mindset Coach for Women

Born and raised in Tehran, Shirin Gerami settled in the UK at the age of 15.

After discovering triathlons in University, Shirin became the first woman ever to represent Iran in triathlon (women had previously been banned from participating in the sport).

She then went onto become the first Iranian - male or female - to finish the Hawaii Ironman.

She is on a mission to show that clothing should not be a barrier to participation in sport for millions of women around the world who want, need or choose to cover their body (whether for cultural or religious reasons or even humility or sun protection).
