across three sports have competed for the caribbean nation at a winter games. the most famous was the 1988 bobsleigh team immortalised by the film cool runnings, something that did inspire benjamin alexander. music. i moved to asia and while i was u- music. i moved to asia and while i was no there _ music. i moved to asia and while i was no there i— music. i moved to asia and while i was up

turned an old hobbyj was up there i turned an old hobby into a job. so i started djing in the year 2000, garage music. djing and might burning man community, the festival that happens out in nevada once a year, got me into some of the avengers porch light tight surfing and skiing. and got to meet a guy called gordon great, a former era pick—up skier who skied for the us and says your technique is absolutely atrocious. but what i cannot buy them for the life of me is how i am keeping up with him. you are fearless. the fact that you are fearless means you have more than half the battle won. so i have gone from never having skied before six years ago to now being in races where i'm actually competing against sometimes some of the top 100 athletes in my discipline. in my best result was march this year, i finished seven seconds behind where i need to be to qualify. because i come from such a low base, my improvements are happening very rapidly. so when i began this mission, it was really almost a selfish pursuit of i love skiing, let's see where i can take this. for myself. and then after the incidents that happened last year with george floyd, i received so much attention and support as a result of people trying to champion diversity in motorsports and now this is almost feeling like up carrying the pressure to perform and do this thing on my shoulders. for diversity in women's sports. so with become much bigger than my own kind of initial selfish goals. and very excited to be that person that can show that it does not matter what your background is, social, economic or race, that you have a place in winter sports. or race, that you have a place in wintersports. i'm or race, that you have a place in winter sports. i'm excited to be that person. good luck, benjamin alexander. loads of life or a rather nice to go to the bbc sport website and keep on top of the davis cup quarterfinal with team to be taking on germany in innsbruck and it's all down tojoe salisbury and neil scott ski in doubles to see if team tb can get through to the semifinals of the davis cup in madrid and all the women posit world cup qualifying matches as well with england's golf against lobby up in don castor in the next two or three minutes. wells is currently coming up later but for me and the rest of the team, that is all for now. hello there. it's been a much milder day today compared to the last few days, where we had frosty mornings, temperatures well below freezing. tonight, though, a spell of wet and windy weather moves through, and then that will open the floodgates to something colder again from the north or north—west. here it is, this area of low pressure which will bring the spell of wet and windy weather. as it pushes its way southeastward, you can see the blue colours beginning to return, digging in behind the system. but it's going to be quite a wet night for a time as this band of heavy rain spreads its way southeastwards. then it'll be followed by blustery showers, these wintry certainly across central and northern scotland. and it will be windy with gales in exposure across some western areas. a chillier night to come, not as mild across the south as what we had the previous night. the mild air eventually clears away from the south east during wednesday morning, then we're all into that colder air flow. there'll be a mixture of sunshine and showers, these wintry across northern areas. some of the showers may form bands across parts of england and wales, so it could be quite wet in places. and it's going to be a chillier day. hello,
