On today's episode of Find Your Edge, I share my personal journey to embrace challenge as a core value and how it led me to commit to the XTERRA North American Championship in 2025. From a road accident that redirected my passion to mountain biking, this episode is all about unearthing hidden potential and setting audacious goals that serve as catalysts for growth. Off-road triathlons, with their unpredictability and unique demands, provide a thrilling canvas for this journey, especially since only 20% of participants are women. It's about striving not just to finish, but to excel, improve skills, and nurture resilience.
