Paige Onweller recently finished 3rd place at Unbound Gravel in that iconic nine woman sprint finish in the 200 mile race. This impressive finish gained her some key points in the Life Time Grand Prix. What makes this finish even more impressive, is that it was just 12 weeks after Paige underwent surgery on her right ankle to repair a torn ligament. In this episode, Kathryn and Kristi are chatting with Paige a couple of weeks before Unbound. She goes into detail about the ankle injury that she sustained while out on a mountain bike training ride, and also gives us an in-depth look at all of the hard work and intentionality that went into her recovery process. This is Paige’s second season as a full-time pro, and she talks through her decision to leave the #vanlife behind this year, and set up a home base for herself in Bentonville. Paige is also launching a new business this fall, called Rosie Up, aimed at helping to propel women into pursuing off-road racing full time in the US and she tells us about her inspiration for starting the business, and why she was propelled to get it off the ground as soon as possible.
