The 2025 UCI Cycling Esports World Championship finals are set for Abu Dhabi, and once again, Jacquie Godbe is on the start list—continuing her streak of qualifying for every World Championship since the sport began.
The multi-time USA Cycling Esports National Champion, bronze medalist at the 2023 Worlds, and practicing physician returns to The Virtual Velo Podcast to share a deeply personal story of resilience, balance, and purpose.
Hosts Chris Schwenker and Emma Martin talk with Jacquie about juggling life as an elite esports racer, cancer researcher, and medical doctor, her remarkable comeback from brain surgery, and the mindset that carried her through recovery. She reflects on the evolution of women’s health in endurance sport, the new UCI weigh-in and hydration protocols, and how integrity and athlete welfare must shape the future of cycling esports.
With humor, heart, and intellect, Jacquie offers an unfiltered look at what it means to compete, heal, and lead by example—both on the bike and in life.
