Results are beginning to show on the water.

Grant spent much of the period after Paris balancing rowing with her work as a resident doctor in the NHS.

At the 2025 World Rowing Championships in Shanghai she travelled as a reserve.

This year, after returning to full-time rowing, she is in the boat.

In June, she helped Britain’s women’s quad team win World Cup gold Lucerne.

“It’s been going well,” she says.

“I think it was a slow and steady start, trying to understand how to fuel and how to gain a bit of weight and gain a bit of muscle.

“I feel like the momentum has been really building.”

She has now been selected alongside Paris Olympic champions Lola Anderson and Hannah Scott, plus Finnola Stratton, for this month’s World Championships, taking place from 24-30 August in Amsterdam.

“It’s such a privilege to race as a lightweight and then turn my hand to seeing if I can throw my lot in with all of the open weight girls, who are so inspiring, and feel that I’ve got a shot,” she adds.

Grant knows there are no guarantees. Reaching Los Angeles, for her, would mark 10 years of representing Britain.

But it is the wider message that appeals to her, as much as the prospect of another Olympics appearance.

“A lot of people think they’re not built for rowing because they’re too short or too small,” she says.

“Showing that that’s actually not the case and you can still achieve if you’re a little bit smaller is also really important.”

And if she does make it to LA?

“It would just be amazing” she says with a smile.
