Tom Hafey - Audio Interview

 Tom Hafey Audio Interview [15:14min]: |Play Now|Download|

Tom Hafey is an icon of Australian sport having been a very successful player and coach in our AFL (Australian Football League). An hour with him and you realise that we have the capacity and propensity to make things more difficult than they need to be. I love people who 'break the rules' and who change perceptions of what's normal, expected, possibly, likely.
While he is unlikely (in modern society), what he does is very possible and inspirational... if only more people would choose to think, do and be like him.
He has chosen to be different, chosen not to behave like a 'typical' seventy five year-old and chosen to do, be and live amazing(ly).

Alicia Molik - Audio Interview

Alicia Molik  Alicia Molik [30:23 min]: |Play Now|Download|

Craig and his SEN Radio co-host, Professor Peter Brukner, interview Australian tennis ace, Alicia Molik.

In one of the funniest interviews Craig and Peter have ever been involved in, the boys cover everything from her bronze medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics and her rise to number eight in the world tennis rankings, to the debilitating inner-ear viral infection which almost destroyed her career.

The boys discover that being a gorgeous, six foot two tennis professional leaves little time to find a partner or to socialise, so they decide to use the opportunity to find Alicia a beau on-air with amusing results ... and little success..

Not your standard radio interview, but one that encapsulates what a great sport Alicia is, and what a wonderful positive attitude she has towards getting back to the top ten of women's tennis.

 Craig can be heard on SEN 1116 Radio in Melbourne at 1 - 3 pm on Saturday Afternoons and Sunday Afternoons from 2 - 5pm.

Ann Quinn Ph.d- Audio Interview

Dr Ann Quinn, Head of Sport Science  Ann Quinn [27:44 min]: |Play Now|Download|

Craig and his SEN Radio co-host, Professor Peter Brukner, interview Ann Quinn, the new Head of Sports Science at the British Lawn Tennis Association.
Ann, one of Australia's most renowned peak performance specialists, chats about her ten years on the world tennis circuit and what it was like working up-close with Aussie tennis aces Pat Cash and Pat Rafter.

Former Wimbledon champion Pat Cash credits Ann with helping him “become one of the fittest tennis players to ever walk on a tennis court”.

As usual Craig finds new ways to conduct an unorthodox interview which has everyone laughing.

Craig can be heard on SEN 1116 Radio in Melbourne at 1 - 3 pm on Saturday Afternoons and Sunday Afternoons from 2 - 5pm.

 

Professor Rob Newton Ph.D - Audio Interview

Robert Newton  Professor Rob Newton Ph.D [21:07 min]: |Play Now|Download|

Craig, and his SEN Radio co-host Professor Peter Brukner interview Professor Robert Newton (Foundation Professor Exercise and Sport Science Edith Cowan University, Western Australia).

In this insightful interview Rob dispels a number of myths associated with exercising for optimal fat burning and succinctly (but bluntly) blows the old 'fat-burning zones' theory out of the water. This guy is at the absolute cutting-edge of Exercise Science, so if you want to most up-to-date-info...listen to him chat with Craig and Peter.

Craig can be heard on SEN 1116 Radio in Melbourne at 1 - 3 pm on Saturday Afternoons and Sunday Afternoons from 2 - 5pm.

Four-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist Nathan Deakes has broken the 50km road walk world record in Geelong.

Deakes recorded a time of 3:35.47.

Competing at the Telstra Australian 50km Road Walking Championships in blustery conditions, Deakes took 16 seconds off the world record previously set by world and Olympic champion Robert Korzeniowski at the World Championships in Paris in 2003 (3:36.03).

Deakes, 29, smashed his previous best and Australian record of 3:39.43 which he set in Melbourne in 2003.

Craig, and his SEN Radio co-host Professor Peter Brukner interview with dietician and author Glenn Cardwell.
Glenn expels a number of myths, fallacies, and misconceptions about food, drinks, nutrition and diet.

He also speaks about the cause of stitches and cramps and tips on how to make sure you don't get them.

Craig ran his instinctive eating concept by him on air ... He's of the opinion that the whole 'listening to our body and eating accordingly' thing, has plenty of merit.

Craig can be heard on SEN 1116 Radio in Melbourne at 1 - 3 pm on Saturday Afternoons and Sunday Afternoons from 2 - 5pm.

 Craig Gordon Audio Interview Part 2 [11:24min]: |Play Now|Download|

Craig, and his SEN Radio co-host Professor Peter Brukner interview Craig Gordon, World Mountain Bike Champion - 24 hour Solo.

Craig pushed his body so hard to capture the 2006 24 Hour solo world championships, held in Conyers, Georgia that his body suffered rhabdomyolysis.

 

Simply put Craig Gordon's bloodstream was so full of muscle breakdown products that he almost poisoned his kidneys.

 

He spent three days in hospital and said this:

 

"The muscle breakdown combined with my dehydration sent a really toxic level of proteins into my blood stream." In a normal person, the range of protein is in the 20-250 parts per whatever range. My count was 5800."

 

Doctors told Gordon had he continued to ride untreated, he very well could have died. Thanks to our friends at 24-solo.com, Gripped Films and Aaron Kobilis for the photo. It really captured the moment.
 
Craig can be heard on SEN 1116 Radio in Melbourne at 1 - 3 pm on Saturday Afternoons and Sunday Afternoons from 2 - 5pm.
