Life Outside of Racing: Ambitions with Emily Batty

Emily Batty is back for season two of Ambitions. The latest episode, the third in the series shows just how important it is to have the right people around you. From training to spending time with the team, Emily takes us through some of the things that go on behind the scenes. She spends time doing some trail building, riding with Laurie and having a dip in an ice bath.

Getting insight into the life of an athlete who is pursuing their goals shows us the bigger picture. Emily signed with Canyon this season and it’s good to see what the team means to her at this stage of her career.

Early on in my career I learned how important environment is. You know, that old saying, youโ€™re a product of your environment? Thatโ€™s absolutely true in sport and in life. The latest episode of Ambitions dives in on environment and people in training and racing and how these subtle details can make the difference in your energy, attitude, and outlook.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
