Chris Hoy insists that “comparison is the thief of joy” as he gave a passionate plea to the next generation to stop worrying about what other people are doing. Speaking on the latest episode of Eurosport’s The Breakdown podcast, Hoy joined hosts Orla Chennaoui and Greg Rutherford to bemoan our culture of comparison. Ad/> Hoy won six Olympic gold medals across three Games, a feat that made him Team GB’s most successful Olympian in history before Jason Kenny won his seventh title in the Tokyo velodrome last summer to surpass him.
