Scots woman chosen as face of new Adidas gear supporting cancer research

A Scottish woman diagnosed with breast cancer during the coronavirus pandemic has been chosen to be the face of a new line of sportswear supporting research into the disease.

Jane Grove was chosen to model Adidas' new Strength in Nature collection after undergoing a mastectomy in December 2020 and both chemo and radiotherapy in early 2021. The 53-year-old Glaswegian says she relied on exercise to stay positive during her treatment - and her upbeat attitude to her cancer fight inspired Adidas bosses to recruit her for the campaign.

The limited edition clothing is only available during October - Breast Cancer Awareness Month - and has been picked to encourage everyone to enjoy the outdoors regardless of health issues. In the snaps, alongside other models who have their own cancer stories, Jane is seen smiling and wearing the new one-off shoes, jackets and tops designed for hiking and mountain biking.
