David Gillick – From Gold Medals to Grounded Living
In this episode of The Parting Glass Podcast, we sit down with Olympic sprinter and proud Dubliner David Gillick. From winning double gold at the European Indoor Championships to holding the Irish 400m record, David shares the highs of elite athletics and the challenges that followed when the stadium lights faded.
We chat about his experience at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he compared the buzz to Italia ’90, his honest reflections on mental health after retirement, and how life has changed as a father of three. David also talks about his passion for coaching, his MasterChef win, and what it means to stay rooted in his hometown of Ballinteer.
This is a wide-ranging, honest, and uplifting conversation with a man who continues to inspire on and off the track.
