Fourteen Paralympic Golds, 38 world titles and 76 new world records. And now, at 42, Tokyo will be her first Paralympics as a mother of two. Dame Sarah Storey is the most successful female British Paralympian of all time and more importantly, mother to two gorgeous little people – Louisa and Charlie Storey.
Sarah credits her biggest achievement in sport to being able to come back after two pregnancies, securing two titles at the UCI 2018 Para-Cycling Road World Championships just 10 months after giving birth to her second child Charlie. Proving it is possible to juggle motherhood with a comeback to elite level cycling.
Sarah is also a strong advocate for women in sport. She is currently working with SKODA Cycling Academy on their This Is Our Time campaign to try to highlight gender inequalities. She believes in leading by example and hopes her experience as an athlete and mother can help pave the way for the next generation of women.
