Episode 45 - Joanne Murphy, Founder, Tri Talking Sport - a podcast by Mass Participation World
from 2020-06-12T02:00
We round off this week's Aid Station with a trip to Galway, Ireland to meet Joanne Murphy, Founder of Tri Talking Sport.
Joanne has worn many hats in the industry and what bursts through is her love of Mass Participation events and people. When her core business of finish line announcing disappeared overnight she seems to have barely skipped a beat with a focus on her podcast, hosting webinars and inspiring people.
On a personal level she went into a bubble with her sister and mum "my sister would be considered a vulnerable adult and my mum is almost 70 so your first priority is to protect yourself and your family" The lifting of the lock-down has been a huge relief "I'm a real social person, I need people"
Joanne is a firm believer that "every cloud has a silver lining. In 2011, I had a fractured pelvis. The cloud was that I couldn't race IRONMAN in Galway, silver lining I was given the chance to commentate on the finish line and I now have a career that I love".
