Cate, who is studying psychology, takes us through the basics of personality and trait theory and explains that roughly half of your personality is set by your genetics, while the other half is shaped through your environment and experiences.

It’s a really interesting chat about what it takes to be a champion and ultimately Cate and Bronte conclude (in a very unscientific way) that personality might help to a point, but sport makes room for all personality types.

If there is one question we get asked most often, it’s how do you manage sibling rivalry? Over the years we have given many different answers to this question. There is the polite ‘it was always a shared dream, so it’s great to do it together’. There is the  almost true ‘if I can’t win, I at least want my sister to win’. 

While neither of these answers are wrong, they do not fully explore and elaborate on the complexities of competing with and against your sister on the world’s biggest stage for over a decade.

Cate and Bronte share their tips for any siblings or parents struggling with this - because while competing at an Olympic Games against your sister is rare, the notion of sibling rivalry is commonplace in many households around Australia (and the world).

This episode Cate and Bronte chat about the marathon world record. Kenyan Sebastian Sawe crossed the London marathon finish line in a staggering 1:59.30 - that’s an average running speed of 21km/h. .

However, that was not the only extraordinary feat that race. Ethiopia’s Yomif Kejelcha was only 11 second behind Sawe, running 1:59.41 in his London marathon debut.

After the race, Sebastian Sawe was pictured holding up his shoes - which caused controversy when they were first released as critics claim it gave runners too much of a boost. 

It raises the question, with not one but two men breaking the two hour barrier for the first time in an official race, was it the shoe technology that led to this feat? Or was the 2 hour marathon barrier a psychological barrier that once crossed, opens the door for others to follow?

She shares her knowledge and insight into long-term injury management.
