#256 From Newbie to the Red Bull X-Alps with Sebrand Warren

Sebrand Warren got his start paragliding just a few short years ago in the US but got hooked immediately and set his sights on the ultimate challenge- the Red Bull X-Alps. Last year he dedicated himself 110% to the race by moving his life, job, and girlfriend to France to learn the intricacies of the Alps and the relentless physical training that is required to compete. In this episode we discuss the challenges and experiences surrounding the Red Bull X-Alps, including Sebrand's recovery from a serious injury that happened just days after the race ended, the mental challenges faced during the race, and the importance of team dynamics.
