South African Olympic gold medallist Chad le Clos celebrates his 28th birthday today. We caught up with him to get some fitness tips from him and to find out what he’s been up to during lockdown. Q.
What have you been doing to keep yourself busy during lockdown? I’m very lucky; I’ve been staying with my family at a friend’s house during the lockdown where there are a couple of horses, a few blesbok, and some dogs around the yard.
Quite a fun place to be and do outdoorsy stuff – there’s a quad bike and things like that. There has obviously been a lot of FIFA as well, and we’ve been playing Cluedo, a game called Speak Out, Pictionary – a lot of board games –and some poker lately.
