In this episode of Abnormal, I chat with three-time Olympian and captain of the Australian National Rugby Sevens team, Henry Hutchison. He tells us what being at the Olympics is REALLY like (and the Olympic Village of course), what it feels like to just miss out on the medals, and why Rugby needs more international personalities like Ilona Maher from the USA. Henry also shares his training and recovery protocols, and more about the unique nature of travelling to the greatest cities in the World to play the Sport that you love.
