I found my family in the crowd and had a selfie with them, which was a special moment. But as I climbed off my bike to walk across for my medal ceremony, with the fans still making lots of noise, I could feel my own joy beginning to soften. My mind was already turning to the Asian Games in September next year.... https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3333575/diary-champion-ceci-lee-already-eyeing-asian-games-tells-coach-she-must-work-harder?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3333575/diary-champion-ceci-lee-already-eyeing-asian-games-tells-coach-she-must-work-harder?utm_source=rss_feed Fri, 21 Nov 2025 00:00:23 +0000 Ceci Lee Sze-wing Ceci Lee Sze-wing I spent part of our flight home from Perth on Sunday recording some thoughts for this diary. I like to reflect after a training camp, because you can analyse the whole body of work. Everything went to plan, there were no injury issues and I feel fit, strong and confident. Winning a road race against men last week was a big boost, not only the result but also the way I paced myself against physically stronger riders. It was also good timing before this Sunday’s race. We have worked well as a team... https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3331869/diary-champion-hong-kong-cyclists-settle-and-plot-tactics-zhuhai?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3331869/diary-champion-hong-kong-cyclists-settle-and-plot-tactics-zhuhai?utm_source=rss_feed Fri, 07 Nov 2025 04:05:07 +0000 Ceci Lee Sze-wing Ceci Lee Sze-wing I am sharing a room here in Perth with three of my teammates and when we get back after training, we rarely talk about cycling. The main topics of conversation are the latest key opinion leaders on YouTube and Instagram, and what we are going to eat. A lot of athletes are very enthusiastic about food. Firstly, what we put in our bodies is so closely aligned to our performance and recovery, but eating is one of our biggest pleasures too. My diet does not change too much during a training block... https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3330419/diary-champion-instagram-influencers-cheesecake-and-beating-men-training-races?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3330419/diary-champion-instagram-influencers-cheesecake-and-beating-men-training-races?utm_source=rss_feed Mon, 27 Oct 2025 04:30:16 +0000 Ceci Lee Sze-wing Ceci Lee Sze-wing When I was starting out in cycling as a young girl, I never imagined I would have the chance to visit so many different parts of the world by the age of 24. I am grateful the sport has given me the opportunity to race in Canada, Egypt, France and the UK, along with regularly competing around Asia. Seeing new places is so much fun, but I always get excited about racing at home, and next month’s National Games track cycling is being staged at the Hong Kong Velodrome. My biggest goal is to do well... https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3329634/diary-champion-hong-kong-cyclist-ceci-lee-defending-her-national-games-gold?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/sport/hong-kong/article/3329634/diary-champion-hong-kong-cyclist-ceci-lee-defending-her-national-games-gold?utm_source=rss_feed Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:00:10 +0000
