all, he said this is a man support what he wanted to a? at such a tough journey because you have your culture i'm muslim, i'm arab and there'sjust all these culture i'm muslim, i'm arab and there's just all these cultures coming in all at once. and then you want to do a sport that's just completely stepping out of the boundary but i am still maintaining what i grew up with as muslim life. i'm breaking stereotypes and i'm showing other women, you guys can do it. in lockdown it was definitely a creativeness that needed to come out. i did a couple of indoor faculty inside the house. that was actually pretty fun to do. i brought out some mats in my room and ijust ijumping around know mike oh, that is great. and then i did it. it was just a fun thing to do. ijust remember that we have a reason to why were wearing that hijab so don't
6:53 pm
stop that. don't let anyone stop you. i was an athletic kid and one of the reasons that i didn't want to wear the hijab was it was so hard for me to put it out. i finally found my style, ifinally for me to put it out. i finally found my style, i finally found for me to put it out. i finally found my style, ifinally found my perfect outfit to wear without getting super hot, without overheating and sometimes if it gets pretty cold i havejust overheating and sometimes if it gets pretty cold i have just the overheating and sometimes if it gets pretty cold i havejust the right amount of layers, doesn't bother me as much. for the hijab community i think girls still need more confidence to play sports. we definitely dip their toes in the water made and put whole foot in there. but i don't think we are close to actually embracement of women's going up and enjoying sport and making it they thing. they hijab that went to the olympic been four years since that time. i want to see more. i want to be the first in the

6:55 pm
although text commentary that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. hello there. this week is shaping up to be one of extremes. we're starting off with very high temperatures for march, for the early parts of the week, and then it turns very cold by the end of the week for the easter weekend. indeed, today, we saw the warmest march day since 1968. 2a celsius recorded at kew gardens. this warmth has been wafting up from the near continent around an area of high pressure. you can see this weather front, though, continuing to plague the north—west corner of the uk. it's bringing further very wet weather to northern and western scotland. looks like it mightjust fringe into western parts of northern ireland by the end of the night. but, generally speaking, the south of scotland most of northern ireland and england and wales will be dry tonight. not quite as chilly as it was last night either, but certainly cooler, with temperatures down to around 6—7 degrees. wednesday, we do it all again.
6:56 pm
it's a fairly cool start, not as chilly as it was his morning, although there'll be plenty of sunshine around. those temperatures rising quickly into the afternoon. it stays rather cloudy for much of scotland, parts of northern ireland, and outbreaks of rain here turning increasingly wintry over the higher ground as some colder air beginning to move southwards. but elsewhere, it's going to be another warm day, and again, very warm for the time of year. across central, southern and eastern england, highs of 23, maybe 2a degrees. now, as we head on into thursday, an area of high pressure will be toppling in from the north—west. that'll settle things down, so it should be mainly dry thursday. variable cloud affecting northern and eastern areas, but some good spells of sunshine. but it will be turning colder. the northern half of the country certainly colder than what we'll see for wales, the south west and in towards central, southern england, the dregs of the warm air here. but temperatures dipping into single figures certainly close to the north and east coast. high pressure's with us as we end the week for friday, so it's going to be mainly dry, but the cold air will have pushed across all areas of the uk.
6:57 pm
so it'll be noticeably chilly, particularly in night. we'll have some frost to start the day on friday. there'll be variable amounts of cloud, certainly across northern and eastern areas. probably the best of the sunshine further south and west, sheltered from this north—easterly breeze. but it's going to be a cooler day for all, particularly for england and wales, with highs probably in the sunniest spots of the south west reaching 12—13 celsius. so, a real shock to the system after a very warm start to the week. as we head on into the easter weekend, even colder air moves down from the north and there will be a risk of wintry showers and some windy weather, too.
