Welcome to the Hellenic Mountain Race Podcast, supported by Albion, Tailfin, Pertex and STYRKR. The third edition of the Hellenic Mountain Race kicks off beneath the cliffs of Meteora as nearly 200 riders embark on an epic journey into the Pindus mountains. In this episode, we hear from a diverse cast of riders, Control Car 3 spending time the day intercepting the midpack. It's early days and most riders greet us with grins plastered across their faces.From switchbacks and singletrack to snack breaks and salamander rescues, the route winds through dense forest and steep climbs toward the first major resupply in Metsovo. Mid-pack riders find rhythm, leaders push toward checkpoint one, and for many, just reaching the start line is a victory in itself.Featured Riders:Shona & Rich (Caps 217A & B)Tanner Jackson (Cap 158)Hannah Simon (Cap 57)Sienna (Cap 150)Michael Gaffey (Cap 105)Ivana (Cap 62)Torsten (Cap 166)Carlotta Schumacher (Cap 23)Gail Brown (Cap 53)Kia (Cap 75)Eric House (Cap 44)Jimmy (Cap 68)Click here to Dotwatch the raceFollow us on Instagram for daily visual updatesProduction and hosting by Mel Webb Sound design by Ben Crannell Hosted on Acast.
