#34: From Life on 2 wheels to 4 with Ben Pritchard

HY3RID Podcast

On this week's episode we are lucky enough to have Ben Pritchard joining us in the podcast den.

Ben shares his incredible journey towards the paralympic games in Tokyo 2020 for GB Rowing. Ben started his athletic career with sailing in his teens, becoming one of the best in the country. From there, he transitioned over to triathlon, again getting to team GB standard before transitioning into cycling.

It was whilst racing in a cycling event in 2016, that Ben crashed, leaving him paralysed from mid trunk down. During rehab, Ben was introduced to a wide array of different disability sports, and admittedly after hating it to start with found a passion for rowing.

3 years later and he has qualified for Paralympic games Tokyo 2020, British and welsh Indoor champion and is a current world record holder over 1km on concept 2.
