When did you start in your sport? 2005

What are your goals in your sport? Top 5 at this year’s world champs... The sky’s the limit... One year at a time.

Why do you participate in your sport? I’m crazy. This would be the easiest way to explain it! 24 hour racing provides a depth of self discovery that has been unfounded for me in any other sport. Every race is different. The human body is an amazing machine, and capable of so much more than what we may think.

Who has been an idol or a mentor for you in your sport? Coach Sadie P

Other Sponsors: Woodhill Mountain Bike Park, Bike 75, Acoustic Motorbike

Testimonial: My first race on Go Fast, I was a little sceptical. I hadn’t used energy drink in a 24 hour race before. After the first lap that I took some out with me, I came back through the pit area buzzing. From then on, I looked forward to my laps on Go Fast. In a 24 hour race, small pleasures are embraced with great enthusiasm. Go Fast proved to be one of these small pleasures.
