  • She Collapsed at 19. Five Years Later She Rode the Tour de France Femmes
    2026/08/11
    Becky Storrie was 19 years old, training thirty hours a week and studying full time, when she collapsed in a teammate’s hallway and started fitting. She had felt fine that morning. She says she was in the shape of her life. That was the end of her triathlon career and the start of nine months in which she could barely make a cup of tea. Chronic fatigue syndrome gave her no timeline, no rehab plan and no promise of recovery. It also took away the only version of herself she recognised. She had a five year plan, she knew exactly what she was going to win, and within weeks all of it was gone. She talks openly about the fear underneath it, whether her friends would still want her around, whether her partner would still want to be with her, when the sport they shared was the thing that had brought them together. What happened next is one of the more remarkable stories on the Island. She threw herself into her psychology degree, drifted into cycling because swimming and running were still beyond her, entered her first bike race in 2019, and inside five years was riding the Tour de France Femmes. The route there was not smooth. Her team collapsed financially at the end of November, leaving her with no contract and no agent, emailing teams she knew would never look at her. When one finally interviewed her they told her something she had no idea about, that they had been watching her for five years because a sports scientist at her university had quietly sent them her lab data without ever mentioning it. In this conversation Beckie talks about the menstrual cycle and how little the sport understood it until recently, the gap between men’s and women’s resources at the top level, what nine days of Grand Tour racing does to your ability to make even the smallest decision, breaking the same collarbone three times in one season, and why she now tells every young rider she coaches to keep something else in their life. It is a conversation about ambition, collapse, identity and the difference between wanting something and being willing to send the email.

  • The Isle of Man World Champion Nobody Talks About
    2026/08/04
    Lesley Sleight didn’t pick up a bow until her sons needed an adult to walk the course with them. She only went along as their shoot guardian. Then her husband asked whether she wanted to do it properly — and if she did, she’d be spending the next four months standing two feet from a bag in a shed, shooting into it. No targets. No scores. Just technique. Her first ever competition was the national championships, where she finished 12th. What followed is one of the most under-told sporting stories on the Isle of Man: GB and England selection, European titles, a world championship, and a single extraordinary season in which she broke three world records and thirty-nine English ones. When she told a teammate her score at the Europeans in the Netherlands, he assumed she’d misspoken by a hundred points. In this episode Lesley talks through the sport from the ground up, the difference between field, target and 3D archery, why traditional-class archers shoot off the shelf with feather fletchings, what “gap shooting” actually means, and why her husband still hand-makes and weighs every one of her arrows. Then the conversation turns to the harder stuff: target panic and how it arrived only after she knew how good she was, the gamesmanship that goes on at international level, competing with no funding while teaching full time, and the quiet frustration of representing your island in a sport nobody writes about. It’s a conversation about technique, pressure, and what it costs to be world-class at something almost nobody is watching.

    2026/07/26
    Christa Cain’s rise in endurance running is nothing short of remarkable. After taking up running in 2022, she has gone from completing her first marathon to becoming one of the Isle of Man’s greatest ever distance runners, winning three individual gold medals at the Island Games and rewriting the Manx record books. In this conversation, Christa shares the reality behind elite performance. She talks about overcoming injuries, balancing training with life, racing against some of the world’s best athletes, training in Kenya, mastering nutrition, handling pressure and building the discipline required to continually improve. This isn’t simply a conversation about running. It’s about how ordinary people can achieve extraordinary results through consistency, resilience and a relentless desire to become just a little better every day. Whether you’re an athlete, entrepreneur or someone looking for motivation to chase your own goals, Christa’s story proves that it’s never too late to discover your potential.
