Isla Short is tackling one of the toughest, most iconic off-road events in the UK: the 3 Peaks Cyclo-Cross. In this interview, Isla and I discuss her upcoming debut, what finally pushed her to enter, and how she is channeling years of high-level racing history into the legendary Yorkshire Dales course.
From translating elite mountain bike skills to brutal hike-a-bike sections, Isla breaks down her mindset, preparation, and hopes heading into race day.
An amazing person to chat to and the biggest name woman cyclist to debut in the race for some time.
Islas’s incredible substack article here is WELL WORTH a read and a great insight into the mind of one of our most gifted and hard-working cyclists.
