Today, I have Becca of Team True North in the World’s Toughest Race.

Becca is one of the strongest, brightest women I know and is here to tell tales of both triumph and near defeat from Eco-Challenge.

She is an impressive young woman, having finished the race when she was just 18 years old! As a lover of cycling and university student studying astrophysics, with a father who’s a navigation expert, Becca was made for greatness. Though, greatness doesn’t come easily. 

Buckle up for a few of Becca’s most notable moments during the race and how it has since affected her mental health.

In this episode, you will hear:

• What it was like to be very young on the team
• The lovely dynamic of racing with her father
• Her adrenaline-filled experience starting of the race
• Becca is not a runner… and Eco-Challenge was the longest hike she’s ever done!
• The mentally toughest part of the race for Becca + The thoughts that lead to meltdowns
• Special bonding moments with other teams
• Wild thoughts caused from sleep deprivation
• The story of her boat sinking 
• What people should be saying to young female adventurers + The best advice she’s ever been given 
• It’s in the weakest moments that we’re being super strong, even when you don’t feel it.
• Becca’s experience with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, anxiety, and depression after the Eco-Challenge
