Manage episode 488152948 series 2971802
Growing up, Grace Brown was quite the runner, but injuriesand some motivation from her dad, led her into the world of cycling.
She captured hearts when she became the first Australian woman to medal in the road time trial, winning gold at the Pairs Olympics, then winning the Cycling World Championships just weeks later.
Two amazing feats made even more admirable considering itwas ONLY eight years earlier she was just THINKING about starting her cycling career.
This week Chloe sits down with Olympic Cyclist GraceBrown to discuss her rapid rise to the top of road racing which all started when she joined a local cycling group.
They chat all things from competing at the TokyoOlympics with a broken shoulder to making the decision to retire on your own terms, even when sometimes it means letting down your fans. We hope you enjoy this episode.
