This week on @Monday_mile_series I’m taking a stroll through Henley on Thames with a lady who knows these waters very well…@erinmwj, a Paralympic rowing gold medallist and breast cancer survivor.

At 29 Erin was diagnosed with breast cancer, which has led to her now being an advocate for early detection and diagnosis. That diagnosis didn’t hold her back though as she competed in the Rowing World Cup, winning gold just four days after her diagnosis and then going on to win the 2022 European Championships whilst on chemo – what a superhuman!

In this down to earth chat we delve into what it takes to be a coxswain, how she learnt to find the boundary between friend and leader with her fellow rowers and how this helped them to win gold. We take a deep dive into her cancer diagnosis, how she tackled the news with a resilient and incredibly positive attitude that carried her through the rest of her treatment.

Erin’s story is so inspirational, it was such an honour to hear it!
