Rest Day at Westfjords Way Challenge: The story behind the race

Published: July 2, 2022, 5:43 p.m.

Today is a very much welcomed rest day at the Westfjords Way Challenge in Iceland. Everyone was very tired and we are starting the last stage at midnight, so today is about resetting and getting ready.

On today's episode, I got to sit and chat with race organizers Tyler Wacker and Lynee Jacks. They tell us the crazy story of how two American students living in Iceland created this incredible stage race. We also discuss about what makes this event special.

While walking around town, I also met some fellow race participants so we hear from Bahadir Güngör from Sweden, as well as Valentina Mancera Autrique from Mexico.
