Michael McKillop | Ep.143

Michael McKillop is widely regarded as the greatest middle distance runner in Paralympic history. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy at 2 years of age, Michael has gone on to win 4 Paralympic gold medals and 9 World Titles.  
Throughout his life, golf has played a pivotal role. What was initially a form of physio for Michael, golf became an escape for his mental health and so much more.  
We sat down with Michael at Ballycastle Golf Club to discuss his journey from a young boy growing up in Northern Ireland to Paralympic Champion and what awaits Michael now he has retired from competitive athletics.
