Slowtwitch — “Three Kiwi Women and Their Outdoor Connection”

In this Slowtwitch feature, I’m profiled alongside two other women with deep ties to New Zealand’s outdoor culture.

Feature

XTERRA — “Give It A Go”

XTERRA recently featured my story in “Give It A Go,” a piece that reflects the spirit behind this site: backing yourself, stepping forward, and discovering what becomes possible when you choose action.

Carry that feeling to other areas of life and you approach things with a lot more confidence.

A conversation from Epic Camp 2022 about training near your limits, managing hard moments, and breaking a big challenge into smaller pieces. I talk about what I found when I gave the camp a go — including the mental side of pushing through a demanding week of swim, bike, and run.
