Dame Sophie Pascoe has called time on her career.

New Zealand’s most successful Paralympian, Pascoe claimed 19 medals, including 11 golds, throughout her career as a competitive swimmer.

She joined Piney to reflect on her career, and discuss how she arrived at this decision.

“I think it was a pretty natural evolution for me,” Pascoe said.

She said that presenting the Paralympic Games last year helped her decision, as she was still part of the team but in a different capacity.

“I was right where I needed to be, which was to be a mother to my son and to be a wife and just be a family unit, but I also have the opportunity to still have a voice for the Paralympic movements and to showcase our incredible athletes.”
