Ellesse Andrews (Track Cycling)

WOMENZSPORTS is hyped to share our kōrero with track cyclist Ellesse Andrews! Sports journalist and rugby player Alice Soper sits down with Ellesse to chat about winning a silver medal in the keirin at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, what we should know about different track cycling races (including how the keirin was invented for gambling purposes!), and how self-confidence plays an important role in success. Ellesse also shares some behind-the-scenes about getting sick only a few weeks before the 2022 Commonwealth Games...where she then won 3 gold medals and a silver medal!Follow us on social @womenzsportsWant to get in touch? https://www.womenzsports.com/aboutDon't forget to rate & review this podcast wherever you're listening!Music by Alex_MakeMusic “Calming In The Sun” from Pixabay Hosted on Acast.
