Finishing in 5 days, 5 hours, and 2 minutes, she rode with patience and composure across a longer course marked by more extreme weather than in 2024.In this conversation, we reflect on her preparation, her mindset, and how staying committed to her own strategy shaped her race from start to finish.Visit our website to stay up to date on future Mountain RacesProduction and hosting by Mel WebbSound design by Ben CrannellCover image by Stephen Shelesky Hosted on Acast.
