Ep 116: Robert De Castella




The Osher Günsberg Podcast show

Summary: Robert DeCastella is an International Sporting legend.  He set the World Record for the Marathon in 1981, competed in four consecutive olympic games, took Gold at two commonwealth games, won the boston marathon, & set a city to surf record that stood for ten straight years.    He's also a remarkable man who's focused his life after competition on helping others.  Not only through his time as Director of the AIS, but now as Director of the Indigenous Marathon Project.    Australian Indigenous Issues are very important to me, as you'll probably guess from listening to this show - so it's always a thrill when I can get a guest on who can shed light on this  - an issue so great that we as a nation have a chance to make things right, and we can do it in our lifetimes if we want to. http://imf.org.au
