The greatest athlete you may have never heard of. Ultra-Cyclist Jack Thompson’s achievements are actually superhuman. He holds Guinness world records, has had documentaries made about him and is honest and open about his mental health struggles. If this episode doesn’t inspire you, nothing will.
We’re proud to be supporting our mates at The Lumpy Plums throughout November to raise awareness for Men’s mental health, suicide prevention, testicular cancer and prostate cancer.
We’ll be featuring chats that delve deeply into some athletes personal experiences with mental health, in both sporting performance and life.
This podcast in particular contains conversations around mental health and suicide – if you or anyone you know needs support, please phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.
BackChat is powered by our partners, Fleet Network, for the 2023 season.
