This week's Feist starts with a recap of all the world championships:
Then, we hear from Isabella Bertold, Canada’s most decorated laser sailor, who successfully transitioned from sailing into professional cycling. What is it like to compete at the top of not just one but two demanding sports? She talks about the physical training that goes into sailing, the mystery of how these mega-sailing events make money, and if both sports can become more sustainable.
Kelly & Sara then do a deep-dive on the recent Cyclists Alliance survey that polls professional female cyclists annually to measure pain points and progress. This year: While the top salaries are improving, the gap between the top and the bottom is widening.
Plus, Feisty Picks of the Week: Marathoner Julia Paternain and triathlete Beth Potter - both proving that you should never count someone out prematurely.
