Building Strength, Sportswomen

Women’s Field Hockey Team Captain Kate Richardson-Walsh On Fitness, Diet and Olympics

May 29, 2017 By Namita Nayyar (WF Team)

Kate Richardson-Walsh

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Training for professional sports requires you to be out in the extreme weather. How are you able to take care of your skin and hair?

Ms. Kate Richardson-Walsh:

As we train and play hockey outside all year round we do become hardy souls! It’s important to protect your skin though and I would wear Bobbi Brown moisturizer every day which contains SPF. I would also wear specific face sunscreen which had a higher factor SPF when the sun was out or we were playing abroad. I would always need to ensure I put the creams on well in advance of training so I didn’t sweat or rub it off immediately! My hair has dealt with a lot! I have dyed it every color under the sun and has been half way down my back and cropped short! I change shampoo and conditioner on a regular basis, depending on what is on offer at the supermarket! I love my Tangle Teezer which ensures my masses of thin hair doesn’t break with all the showering and washing.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Who has been your greatest influence and motivator in your success in the field of your career?

Ms. Kate Richardson-Walsh:

I think my family are a huge source of influence and inspiration. My sister and I both played hockey for our country and I think this is due in large part to the support and grounding that my family gave us. Our family never pushed us into hockey but they taught us that decisions that we made had a knock on effect to our ambitions and journey. I learnt from an early age that in order to be the best I could be at whatever I decided to do it would be about working hard and making good choices and not sacrifices. My parents also taught me to make the best of any situation with which I was faced, I think this has helped me be resilient through the inevitable ups and downs of my hockey career and life.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

You became the most capped female in Great Britain in February 2016 during test matches in Australia with a record 375 times. How did you feel after giving such breakthrough performances and receiving this honor?

Ms. Kate Richardson-Walsh:

It was an incredible honor to become Great Britain’s most capped female player. Our assistant coach, Karen Brown, had been holding the record for some time and it was great to have her there supporting me on the day. It was an interesting time for me personally. I wasn’t in a great vein of form at the time and my position in the team was a little unstable. I look back at receiving this accolade with bitter sweet memories. I had known the milestone was around the corner for some time and it felt like it was weighing me down a little. Some wise words from my wife Helen helped me relax and focus on being the best version of me by focusing on my strengths. She said ‘let the form come to you’. Sure enough it did and some of the emotion that came out on top of the podium in Rio was because I had come through this just months earlier.
