Episode 73: Carol Cooke on MS, Medals & Proving People Wrong (Over and Over Again)

Описание: In Episode 73 of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with triple Paralympic gold medallist Carol Cooke—former cop, cyclist, swimmer, speaker, and founder of the MS Mega Swim—to talk about resilience, reinvention, and refusing to accept limits.






Carol shares her life-defining diagnosis with MS at age 36—and the brutal delivery from a neurologist who told her to “get her affairs in order” and give up sport.






What followed was a decades-long story of defiance, discovery, and gold medals in three sports across two continents.






From being told she was “too fat for gymnastics” at 9 to winning gold at age 60, Carol has made a habit of proving people wrong.






She opens up about her journey from rowing to cycling, racing men because there were no female categories, and launching a 24-hour swim that’s raised over $11 million for people living with MS.






🚴 A reminder that belief is powerful, stubbornness is underrated, and you’re never too old to chase something new.
