    When Gerda says "jumped into local races for fun" what she actually means is "I did a marathon where the first 22km was 1:29, and the back 20km was a 1:14“... Never fails to look thrilled. Inspirational.

    My God. Look at this insanity @26:49. This woman is a beast. And I don't believe high stack carbons are beneficial on uphill's like this... in fact the foam & plate probably works AGAINST forward population on steep uphill's like this.
