Not the winner just winning. 2 hard falls last week knocked my confidence but I talked myself out of a DNF to cross the finish line with a broken soul. Moving through the field this week, I found the grip again to push hard from 31st position on lap 1 to finish 24th overall with my mojo fully restored #crossisboss #womensracing #ccxl2019 #itsarollercoaster #cyclocross #cyclinglife #cyclingpic #cyclingpassion #cyclocrossrace #crossishere 📷 @kwperry12 @anneturphotography

It’s widely published cycling is good for your mental health. After I completed London-Edinburgh-London 1400km Audax in 2017 I didn’t feel those benefits. I shared my epic journey on my blog and then I stopped writing. Today I’ve written about how I found my cycling sparkle again. Thank you @jenscyclingart for the text 💛 #worldmentalhealthday 👉 Link in my bio
I couldn’t make it up this steep climb in practice but the cheers of support during the race helped me grit my teeth and dig a bit deeper. It’s a @velobants.cc fact cheering helps in a race 🙌 I had a roll in the mud and lost a last lap battle but I finished with my first league top 20 overall in 18th and 5th in my age group 😬😁🏁 #cheersforwatts #cheers #cheerleaders #cycling #crossisboss #cyclocrosslife #cyclocross #ccxl2019 #womensracing #womenscycling #fortheloveofmud #cyclingpics #cyclingphotos #cyclingculture #cyclingshot .......Thanks to my lovely Mum for the 📷 @anneturphotography
