This week the WARP is carried by Sinead! Unfortunately we weren't able to meet to record over the weekend, so we apologise for missing the usual results. Namely the 6 Inch Ultra Marathon, which will belatedly cover next week.However, Sinead had the privilege of sitting down with Sarah Jamieson during the week - one of WA’s greatest ever exports in the sport of track running. Sarah is a 3 x Olympian & held the National 1500m record for 12 years until it was broken in 2018 by Linden Hall. Sarah shared how she got into the sport of running, some of the injury struggles she dealt with throughout her career, her most memorable race at the 2006 Monte Carlo Golden League (pictured) - as well as her life after running & her thoughts on the current national & WA track scene. Enjoy!Instagram @warunningpodEmail - [email protected] - https://www.strava.com/clubs/WARP
