In Episode 5 of Series 2 Jim is in conversation with athlete Melissa Reid who's list of sporting accomplishments is long enough to make your jaw drop, including but not inclusive of her paratriathlon Olympic Bronze medal in Rio Brazil in 2016, her 2 World titles in the AmpSurf ISA World Para Surfing Championships (making her Britain’s only ever surfing World Champion), being named Cornwall’s Young Coach of the Year in 2012 and the BBC’s South West Disabled Athlete of the Year in 2013. Make no bones about it, whether it’s dropping into bombs at Aggie or passionately working to widen the opportunities for people with disabilities in surfing, being born with a visual impairment hasn’t held Melissa Reid back one jot.
This episode was recorded live from day 2 at the Blue Earth Summit at The Bristol Wave.
