Cyclist Magazine Podcast: Emma Finucane on gold medals, world records and the mental side of track cycling
This episode is brought to you by the Insta360 X5 action camera
This week on the Cyclist Magazine Podcast, Will and Robyn are joined by Welsh track cycling star Emma Finucane. At just 21 years old, Emma became the first British woman to take three medals in a single Olympics – including team sprint gold – since track and field athlete Mary Rand in 1964.
In winning that gold at Paris 2024, Emma and teammates Sophie Capewell and Katy Marchant broke the world record not once but an astonishing three times, cementing her as the fastest woman in the world on the track.
In this episode, Emma discusses feeling like an imposter despite being a champion, body image in cycling, and managing her emotions around winning and losing. Plus Emma and Robyn get into a bit of Formula 1 chat, because why not – it’s all going fast, isn’t it?
Interview begins at 7:40.
