   Listened to an interview of the #TCRNo7 winner Fiona Kolbinger. https://soundcloud.com/thetranscontinentalrace/tcr-no7-fiona-kolbinger-interview
   
   The highlight for me was starting at 15:45 when she talks about what it takes to win an endurance race. None of the aspects has anything to do with testosterone levels or physical circumstances. Smarts, toughness, and determination. Oh, and a love of #cycling

     @normandc I am amazed at what humans on a bicycle can do. Love it.
     
     "survived around 100 wild dog chases " Crazy.
     
     Favorite quote from Kolbinger: “I loved the race. It felt like a real adventure, with all the places I was able to see, completely new to me, and challenges like finding a safe sleeping spot, they are not things I do in my everyday life. Those were genuinely the best consecutive 10 days of my life so far.”
     
     Thanks again for the heads-up.
