About this episode
In this episode of Beyond the Track, we sit down with Eden Robinson to explore the journey that shaped her into the athlete she is today. Eden takes us back to where it all began - growing up in a sport-loving family, drawing inspiration from those closest to her, and discovering athletics through her first club.
Now a multi-event athlete, Eden talks through her life as a heptathlete, sharing her favourite events and what draws her to the challenge of mastering so many disciplines. Known within her family for treating every session like a Rocky montage, Eden explains how mindset, consistency and support have played a huge role in her development.
The conversation also touches on adversity, as Eden opens up about picking up a knee injury in November 2024, how it tested her mentally, and the lessons she’s taken from the recovery process. Looking ahead, she shares her belief that she’s ready to shock a lot of people this year, alongside valuable mental tips and advice for athletes navigating setbacks.
We also discuss Eden’s choice to take her athletics journey to the next level by heading to university in the United States, and what excites her most about the road ahead.
An honest, motivating and insightful conversation - and that’s just scratching the surface.
