EP61 of The Mettleset podcast is live and it will encourage you to #BeMoreMoroj
Moroj Adil 🇸🇦🚲 is Saudi Arabia’s first pro cyclist having joined the GreenEdge Cycling's Liv Alula Jayco Women's Continental Team. Amazing, right? What’s even more remarkable is that she only learned to ride a bike two years ago.
In this episode, we get a masterclass from Moroj on what’s possible when you don’t put limits on yourself. When you take - and make - opportunities and then let the magic happen. It’s a story of heart, self-belief and the support you receive when you’re brave enough to follow your dreams.
It’s a joyful, fun and funny chat as Moroj details her entry into the cycling world including:
🚲 Her first group ride - which was also her first time riding a bike
🚲 Her first mountain bike race, The NEOM Titan Desert Saudi Arabia and how she went from disqualified finisher to podium finish a year later
🚲 The fateful AlUla Tour with the Saudi Cycling Federation team
🚲 Joining the Liv Cycling AlUla Jayco Continental Team
🚲 The Traka; and
🚲 Her Olympic and Paris Roubeux avec Zwift aspirations

EP 45 The Mettleset Podcast - Maha Haddioui
🎙 EP45 of The Mettleset Podcast is LIVE 🇲🇦 ⛳
Our guest Maha Haddioui made headlines as the first Arab on the Ladies European Tour but in our chat, we drill down on what it REALLY takes to achieve the status of a pro golfer on tour and maintain it.
Maha, who is also a 2x Olympian, tells us how she harnesses the power of a positive mindset and visualisation to be on top of her game.
Our fascinating chat about all things golf also delves into the changing face of the women’s game in the region and the massive potential for its growth. We also chat through the disparity of opportunities between men’s and women’s golf (yes, that’s still a thing) and how a growing fan base, men’s golf, and governmental efforts have potential to change the game for the better for all.

Our co-founder Dawn Barnable was on Emirates News with Graham Clews last Friday to chat about how The Mettleset came into being and our mission. It’s simple - we saw a gap in the coverage of women’s sports, and also visibility of new and growing sports including ultra-, action, and adventure sports, and are here to fill it! 🎙 🗞
We also saw how this lack of coverage affects participation rates, sponsorship dollars and the continued growth of a rich, diverse and welcoming sports community and industry - not in the region, but globally. 🌍
We’re closing in on one fulfilling year of bringing you more multidimensional sports stories. And our mission to help diversify the sporting ecosystem has only just begun. It’s an exciting time for athletes and sports in the region and we can’t wait to share more news on what we’ve been working on very soon. 📈
Our Bonus EP🚴🏾♀️🏃🏼♀️🏊🏼♀️ today encapsulates everything sports is - community, sociability, fellowship and team spirit.
These are the amazing VOICES from Challenge Roth , the annual long-distance triathlon that takes place in Germany and sees more than 3,500 participants, 2,700 volunteers and 300,000 spectators every year.

Courage is fear in motion… 🌊🚣🏽🇦🇪
Is fear holding you back from achieving a goal?
If so, the story of Toby Gregory and how he rowed - as part of the Arabian Ocean Rowing Team - 5000km across the Atlantic Ocean is for you… LIVE on our YouTube channel right now: https://lnkd.in/diZ_zPez
What was the ‘why?’ you ask? Well turns out Toby is driven by a strong purpose that should matter to all of us… clean oceans.
As the UN Environment Programme sums it up… “oceans feed us, regulate our climate, and generate most of the oxygen we breathe. They also serve as the foundation for much of the world's economy, supporting sectors from tourism to fisheries to international shipping.” Simply put, protecting our oceans is protecting our lives and the future of the planet. 🐠🌍
As one adventure ends, another starts with #RowtoCop. Follow Row to COP 28 . #themettleset
