Ruth Mwandumba is competing at the European Rifle Shooting Championships while six months pregnant.

The 29-year-old has endured a tricky pregnancy, with nausea and vomiting extending into her second trimester.

The shooter, who has Malawian heritage, has been a prominent figure in the push for greater diversity in the sport.

She was the reserve to Seon McIntosh in the 10 m air rifle event at the Paris 2024 Games .

"So many people have been successful at their sport, gotten pregnant, had a family, then come back and have still managed to be just as successful, if not more so and I think that's so inspiring to those of us who are going through the journey. "It's definitely motivated me to because my plan is to come back and still hopefully aim for those major competitions, with the Olympics the long-term goal. "To do it with my twins watching on, would be all the more special.".
