Episode description

In 2024 Rhys McClenaghan made history becoming the first Irish men's artistic gymnast to ever win an Olympic medal. Performing one of the greatest pommel horse routines of all time to become the Paris 2024 Olympic champion. Rhys is the only gymnast to have ever held the European, Commonwealth Games, World championships and Olympic titles at the same time. He is now a Red Bull athlete and recently took part in Dancing with the stars winning the TV reality show trophy. His Olympic legacy will inspire generations of young Irish athletes to dream of competing on the biggest stage of all. We were lucky enough to spend time with Rhys at the National training centre in Dublin and had the amazing opportunity to watch him train alongside the Irish team. Thank you to Rhys and the coaching team based in Dublin for giving us their time. And this is his story.
