British sporting icon @chrishoy1 fought his way to the top of the Olympic podium multiple times — only to find that his toughest battle was yet to come in midlife. At the age of 47, Chris was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer. This week on The Mid•Point, Chris opens up to me about the shock and emotions of those first few weeks and months, and how he drew on the tools he’d mastered as a professional athlete to endure the treatment that was keeping him alive. Chris speaks candidly about how much his mindset has shifted—even in just the past six months—and how his wife, Sara, has helped him see how lucky they are as a family, even as she faces her own life-changing diagnosis. Remarkably, Chris has found a way to stay present, embracing each moment rather than clinging to an uncertain future. This conversation will leave you reflecting on what truly matters—listen to the full episode via the link in my bio. #themidpoint #sirchrishoy #olympicchampion #prostatecancer #kiltwalk
Ahead of International Women’s Day this Saturday, I brought together an incredible group of women to discuss the journey to gender parity—reflecting on the progress we’ve made and what still needs to be done to achieve true equality. My four guests have all achieved sporting greatness, redefining what it means to be a female in sport: @kazcarney, who played football over 100 times for England; hurdler @sallygunnell, who once held the Commonwealth, European, World, and Olympic titles simultaneously; @realdeniselewis, the first British woman to win Olympic gold in the heptathlon; and two-time Olympic champion @helenglovergb, who defied expectations by returning to the Olympics after becoming a mother. These remarkable women have all overcome immense gender barriers in elite sport, and are committed to creating a better future for the next generation of women, no matter their goals or ambitions. Their determination, resilience — and not to mention, competitive spirit — perfectly embody the need to #AccelerateAction this International Women’s Day. Don’t miss this inspiring episode!

#ad. I’ve always been fascinated about families and where we all come from. When @ancestry got in touch, it was a good excuse to delve further back – not only into my own story, but also in to the stories of incredible sports women. Why not look into your own family or special interests? For Women’s history month, Ancestry have given free access to the 1921 census and millions more records – all available until Sunday 9th March. What better excuse to start now!
To celebrate International Women’s Day, I was lucky enough to chat to some sporting legends about what changes they have seen, and would like to see in future.
