We begin our profile of Team GB's rowers with Women's 8 Cox Zoe de Toledo, who leads a crew who are a real medal prospect at Rio 2016 in August.

"This is new to me, my first Olympic Games, and it's the culmination of 4 years of work. For some people, decades of work."

"I need to direct the rowers efforts and remind them what we set out to do, technically how we're going to do it and focus energy in different parts of the race."

"We have a fairly structured plan, and there are calls that I use every race which we know work for us and we know what to expect."

"What changes race-on-race is where you are compared to other people. Elite athletes don't need me to come up with an inspirational catchphrase, I just need to keep them focused."
