john maguire has been at the lee valley white water centre to find out. clarke goes to work at the lee valley white water centre north of london. and this is his office. joe took gold in the kayak slalom at rio in 2016. commentator: the time of 88.7 could be beaten. i it is! 0h, sensational! the winning margin — a fraction of a second, a blink. the margins are so tight in this sport and that's why the training is so intense. since rio, joe's been through more twists and turns than a slalom run. he failed to qualify for the last olympics in tokyo 2020 and, in recent months, has become a father to hugo, giving him a new focus. i'm doing this to put food on the table for hugo and for belle. so it's very much a case of it's notjust me any more — if it doesn't quite go to plan, i can eat some beans on toast. i'm not sure that's going to go down very well, is it, mate? so, yeah, it's very much a case of this is my living and i've got a mortgage, i've got a child. so it's very much like the focus has changed from notjust me. i'm doing it for my whole family now.
