In this episode of the Moving Humanity Forward Podcast, Cathy Malejane sits down with sprinting icon Isaac Makwala for an unfiltered conversation about sport, integrity, and the future of athletics in Botswana. Makwala reflects on how his love for running began, the people who shaped his path, and his vision for the Isaac Makwala Athletics Academy. He shares candid thoughts on the Botswana Grand Prix, the state of women’s athletics, and the recent doping scandal that’s rocked the local sporting scene. From explaining how doping tests work to revealing how he kept his own career free from banned substances, Makwala speaks with the authority of experience. He also talks about the role coaches play in protecting athletes, the mindset needed to succeed, and what the return of government-supported sporting codes could mean for the country. It’s a rare look at the sport through the eyes of one of Botswana’s most respected athletes, passionate, insightful, and straight to the point. #BotswanaAthletics #IsaacMakwala #MovingHumanityForwardPodcast #SportsIntegrity #AntiDoping #Athletics
