The Jack Murley Sports Show

The One with Sophie McKinna

Listen on

Episode notes

Sophie McKinna is one of those people who we love on this podcast.

In fact, it was with us that the shot-putter and British Olympian first spoke publicly about her sexuality back in 2023 – and a lot has happened since then.

There’s been a major elbow injury, surgery, a road to recovery and – as you’ll hear – an engagement and wedding to plan as well.

But what pushes Sophie on is her desire to continue competing, and her recognition that something within her is driving her to accomplish goals that she’s not yet reached.

You’re going to hear all about that on the podcast today – in a chat that’s about mental resilience, body positivity, role models, grit, sharing your story to help others, finishing things you’ve started, and dogs.

Yeah, dogs feature a lot!

This is a top chat with a brilliant athlete in which nothing is held back, and we think you’ll love hearing it!
