Women Who Race // Ep.6 Cynthia Carson

Cynthia Carson (@watt_wagon) made her entry into the ultra-racing scene back in 2022, and in just a few years she’s made a real impact – collecting an impressive series of titles, with wins at Unbound XL, Badlands, Transcordilleras, and Atlas Mountain Race. She was all set to take on the Transcontinental Race No10 when a collision just two weeks before the start put an end to her ambitions.In this episode, Cynthia opens up about the ups and downs of her journey back to the start line for TCRNo11. We talk about what it is that draws her to racing, and why she’s more excited than ever to race as part of the #100TCRWomen campaign against the strongest women’s line-up the race has ever seen.-----Want to join our Women Who Race WhatsApp community, where we share advice, organise online webinars, and support each other in preparing for ultra-distance races?
