Tall Poppy Talk - A podcast by Grace Lewis

"You have to push the boundaries of athletic performance and make that really interesting and really awesome. The race needs to be tight, the race needs to be fast. And then also you need someone to root for, you need someone to root against" - Logan Ullrich, Olympic Silver Medalist. Olympic rower Logan Ullrich shares his journey from a young athlete in Australia and New Zealand to a silver medalist at the Paris 2024 Olympics. We discuss the challenges and triumphs of being an international athlete, the unique experience of competing at the Olympics, and the importance of mental focus in high-pressure situations. Logan also reflects on the concept of Tall Poppy Syndrome in New Zealand, his personal definition of success, and his aspirations to give back to the sport that has given him so much.
