Jessica Learmonth is a professional British triathlete. In 2021, Learmonth won the gold medal in the triathlon mixed relay at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
"My main aim in sport is to do my very best and enjoy it.
I love sport, as it makes you focus on more what your body can do, rather than how it should look."

Chloe March is a road and trail runner from the UK. She regularly competes in marathons, including ultramarathons. Her enthusiasm for running is an inspiration to other athletes.
"Everybody has to start somewhere, and you don't have to be great to start but you have to start to be great. By great I don't mean the best in what you do but the impact you have on others around you, by starting you might empower other women around you to start whether that be an encouragement to your friends, a reminder to anyone that it's never too late or just being superwomen to the young girls in your life."
