In Episode 2 of Beyond the Track Podcast, we kick things off with a weekend round-up of incredible performances from Welsh athletes competing across Europe - from Geneva to Germany, Loughborough, and the mountains.

Then, we’re joined by one of the greatest athletes Wales and Great Britain have ever produced - Mr Colin Jackson!

In a wide-ranging and inspiring conversation, Colin takes us back to where it all began: his early days in the sport, the crucial influence of his coach Malcolm, and dealing with multiple injuries. He also shares what it was like also having a famous sister - a star on the hit show Casualty - and reflects on the honour and pressure of being one of Wales’s finest-ever athletes.

We wrap up by looking ahead to the weekend's action, with a spotlight on the 2025 Welsh Senior, U17 & Para Outdoor Track & Field Championships, incorporating the British U23 Trials - a huge event you won’t want to miss.
