LONDON: Britain's Olympic, world and European track cycling champion Katie Archibald says the suicide this month of American rival Kelly Catlin has hit her hard.

"That's what has kept in my mind these past few days. It's left a heavy feeling in your chest, in your stomach. It's really horrible to imagine what Kelly was carrying around." "She had I think problems with reasoning, kind of befuddled," he said."She had changed and it was tough to see and it was a concern to us."

"But it does scare you to think that a crash could not just take you out of your sport, but also take you out of yourself." British Cycling implemented an Action Plan to address 39 areas of concern, including"athlete whole-life development and welfare". "Maybe less stigma too about acting as an individual. I never agreed with the idea that there is only one personality type that can be an Olympic champion. You don't have to be devoid of emotion."
