  • How the team deals with major challenges when they arise, eg, when they lost their timing card at the last world champs in Paraguay.

  • What non conventional navigating techniques he has found useful that you wouldn’t read in a manual. 

  • How he and his wife both balance adventure racing competitively

  • His typical training block leading up to a big race. Whether they train as a team. How he maintains elite fitness while working full time

  • Dealing with sleep deprivation and whether it has taken any toll on him w so many expedition races. How he recovers.
