Brother Jorge & Sister Sophie Are Her Inspiration

Lucy Bronze’s love of soccer comes from her brother, Jorge, who is two years older and always inspired her sister to play from a young age.

Jorge was initially active throughout his teenage years. 

However, during University, his activity level dropped to zero due to bad eating habits. He realized that he had gained weight and felt breathless every time he walked.

Jorge’s dad, an avid club runner, suggested that Jorge get himself down to his local park run. He then started running, counting calories.

After six months, the runner joined a local running club and trained for ‘The Great North Run.’

There he trained and read running articles until, in 2015, his park run time went down from 23 minutes to under 19. The same year he ran his first half marathon.

Lucy’s love of sports is instilled by the motivation and inspiration provided by her brother and sister.

Jorge and Sophie faithfully attend every major tournament where Lucy competes, providing encouragement.
