**Jess Fox: ‘Let’s throw myself in the deep end here and challenge myself’** Australia’s celebrated athlete, Jess Fox, has taken a break from competition since the Paris Olympics, but her life post-Games has been anything but uneventful. Known for her remarkable career built on stepping outside her comfort zone, Fox recently faced a new challenge as she prepared to walk the runway at the L’Oréal Paris Walk for Worth event held at Sydney’s Overseas Passenger Terminal. “I was really nervous about it because I’m not a model,” the triple Olympic gold medallist admitted. “I don’t feel confident in that role. I’m much more at ease in sneakers or even barefoot when I’m kayaking.” Despite her apprehensions, Fox embraced the opportunity to push her boundaries once again, showcasing her versatility beyond the world of sports.
