World Athletics has approved the introduction of cheek swabbing to determine if an athlete is biologically female. The global body's president Sebastian Coe says the decision is further evidence his organisation will protect the women's category in competition. The intention is to have the testing in place for September's world championships in Tokyo. Former Olympian and Otago University Emeritus Professor Dave Gerrard says the science behind the proposed tests is solid - and it's a reliable testing method. "It's used in common medical practice for genetic issues - and to determine the sex of individuals. So it's sound, and it is sound science."

"I'm not, for one moment, trying to exclude transgender individuals from participating - I'm just trying to get some logic to this. How far do you allow somebody to go?"

The 2024 Summer Olympics are about to begin in Paris, and that event should be of interest even to those who don't much care about sports. For one thing, it's the 100th anniversary of the 1924 Olympics, also held in Paris, in which Christian missionary Eric Liddell won a gold medal. That story was famously recounted in the Academy Award winning movie “Chariots of Fire,” and the story and that movie has become a part of the lore of the modern evangelical movement. Another story unfolded 48 years ago, at the Montreal Games, in 1976. It was that year, at the height of the Cold War, that the American women's swim team, a team many called the strongest in the world at that time, went up against the East German women's team. Though the American team brought home a lot of hardware from those games, many sports historians and others believe the women of that team were robbed of their place in Olympic history by the aggressive doping program of the East Germans. Swimming World Magazine has called those Olympics “Doping's Darkest Hour.” The East German doping program eventually led to reforms in the Olympic movement. That said, if you have been following this year's Olympics coverage, you may know that a new doping scandal, involving Chinese athletes, threatens to taint this year's games. So this story of the 1976 games, which has elements of heroism, courage, leadership, and character is as relevant today as ever. And there's no better person to tell this story than Casey Converse. His book is “Munich to Montreal: Women's Olympic Swimming in a Tarnished Golden Era.” Casey had a front row seat to the controversy. He was a member of the USA Olympic Swim Team at the Montreal Olympics. He was also an American record holder in the 1650. From there, he coached at the United States Air Force Academy for 28 seasons. He was recently selected as one of the top 100 college swim coaches in the last 100 years by the College Swimming & Diving Coaches of America. He also served as a consultant for the documentary “The Last Gold,” which is a film account of the story we'll talk about today. Also, if I might insert a personal note here: Casey is a friend. My son Cole swam for the Air Force Academy's men's team during his time there, and I got to know Casey a bit. I was personally inspired by his mentorship of generations of young swimmers and future Air Force officers, including my son. I should also add that he is now battling a very serious form of cancer, and I've been able to see his character and his faith shine brightly as he faces this new challenge. It's an honor to know him, and an honor to have him on the program. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.

The Summer Olympics in Paris kick off in mere hours, so how appropriate that today I'm going deep with the first Guides Gone Wild former Olympian, Nicole Freedman, now the Executive Director of NEMBA, the New England Mountain Bike Association.As you'll hear, Nicole's Team USA experience is impressive, but even more amazing to me are the decades of devotion she's applied to making bikes, and bike transportation, a bigger part of our everyday lives.Nicole was the city of Boston's first-ever 'Bike Czar'; during her tenure, she helped transform Boston from the three-times designated 'worst cycling city in the country' (according Bicycling Magazine), into a national leader in cycling accessibility and safety.After some additional stints leading both urban and rural active transportation initiatives, in 2022, Nicole took the helm of NEMBA - only the third Executive Director in that  organization's 35 year history. NEMBA is a community of mountain bikers committed to creating epic riding experiences, preserving open space, and guiding the future of mountain biking in New England through its 35 chapters across all six New England states.It's almost like we're e-biking our way through this conversation, we cover so much ground! From metro-west to Stanford to Sydney to Seattle, with multiple boomerangs back to the Boston area, all with the goal of making bikes the new normal for commuters, conservationists, and casual riders alike (no hot dog costume required!!)Links from our conversation (not chain, the other kind!):New England Mountain Bike Association (NEMBA): https://nemba.org/Elevate: https://elevatemtb.com/Guides Gone Wild talks with Sabra Davison, Little BellasVermont Mountain Bike Association: https://vmba.org/Kingdom Trails Association (VT): https://www.kingdomtrails.org/Hub on Wheels (not happening any more, likely a victim of COVID, sigh - but here's link to a Hub on Wheels FB page showing info and images from 2019): https://www.facebook.com/HubOnWheels/Toole Design GroupCo2 Inflator KitsBear Brook State Park (NH)

You asked for it. We delivered. Because after Emmanuel Paris' first appearance on the podcast, our 'socials' were flooded with DMs from listeners who couldn't get enough of his wisdom and insight. Paris, also known as "Coach Pow," today made his second appearance.Coach Pow isn't your run-of-the-mill fitness expert. He doesn't just "talk the talk." He also "walks the walk." And sprints it too!As a 2008 Canadian Olympian sprinter and a 2006 Commonwealth Games Bronze Medalist, he knows what it takes to excel in the world of athletics. He's also a former pro drug-free bodybuilder, proving you can build a strong & healthy body without shortcuts or long-term repercussions.Nowadays, he "pays it forward," as a high-performance coach in the fitness industry. Pow shares a wealth of knowledge and experience to help individuals reach their fitness goals.In this episode, Coach Pow reflects on his evolving fitness perspective. He's shifted his focus from "getting big" to more refined qualities like agility and joint pain-reduction. He says the new retirement plan revolves around strength, but isn't limited to just building muscle; rather it encompasses flexibility, mobility, and participation in sports, like sprinting, soccer, and martial arts.We also talk about how Coach Pow's path to becoming a running back was diverted by his environment. He mentions that his high school didn't have a football team. Also, his mom disliked contact-sports, which led to him missing an opportunity to participate in organized football.In his local community, Pow recalls showcasing his innate talent for football, drawing attention from those around him, especially his friend's dad, who wanted to take him "under his wing." But his mom had other plans, steering him toward a school focused on academics and non-contact sports. His high school had Debate & Chess. Despite projecting as an NFL running back IMO, Coach Pow's journey took a different, more fulfilling turn.This conversation was packed with valuable fitness insights and life advice. I hope you enjoy as much as I did!
