It's never too late to start : running the Hardrock 100 at 55, with Becky Bates

At 55 years old, Becky Bates lined up for her first 160-kilometre ultramarathon. A few years later, she found herself on the start line of the legendary Hardrock 100, one of the most demanding mountain races in the world, in Colorado (USA).But in this episode of En tête-à-tête, recorded at the Banff Mountain Film and Book Festival, Becky isn't really talking about running.Climber, skier, route developer, volunteer, and ultrarunner, she reflects on what it means to start something new later in life. On the feeling of not belonging. On imposter syndrome. And on the unexpected communities that help us keep moving forward when we doubt ourselves.We talk about aging, friendship, mountains, and the stories we tell ourselves about what we can, or cannot, achieve. About opening doors instead of closing them. About daring to begin before feeling ready.A conversation about limits, possibility, and all the mountains that still lie ahead.Enjoy the episode ✨🏃🏼‍♀️ About Becky Bates :- Her film, Becky Bates : Not a running story by Scott Proudfoot and Lukas Nemeth- Her InstagramFollow our project 🏔️ :- On ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - On our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- On our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
