WILD n Fearless - Women Inspiring Legendary Dreams. Join Bec Fox and her Podcast guest Hube Wichers, a naturally results-driven individual who is shown both in her life choices and achievements in mountain running and adventure racing. Motivated by being in nature and personal success including the “crowd favorite Dutch girl, continue her winning streak of 4 consecutive Queen of the Mountain titles (2005 — 2008), with a fifth win in 2011" of the King of the Mountain Pomona Event. Interviewed after arriving in a sweat, changing from cycling pants and top, placing her bike out of the scope of the camera, and changing into more relaxed gear, Hube shares her passion and love of adventure racing and running, and how it weaved into her life and created quite extraordinary achievements, friendships and adventures. It is quite an amazing journey. Her passion for others to get out there and do active stuff is her mantra. And all the while, in a modest, ho-hum manner and sharp wit.
Ever heard of adventure racing? Well, firstly it takes an Iron Woman to complete an event, not alone win it! You have to be a super athlete with determination, resilience, vision, commitment, and inner strength to perform like this superstar. A typical day’s adventure race looks like, as Hube shares after one of her events, “an absolutely awesome 100 straight hours of bliss, Trekking, Running, Mountain Biking and Kayaking, going from strength to strength..... Well, with a very sore bottom from 240km on the MTBike with so much vertical gain/loss? Lots! At least 4,500m in the 170km stint”.
Hube has 6 times won the legendary ‘King of the Mountain’ event – Titling herself as the ‘Queen of the Mountain’. Held at Pomona Qld, the run up Mt Cooroora has become one of the toughest short-course mountain races in Australia.
Hube shares with us the awesome experiences and opportunities that running has brought to her. This podcast will leave you wanting to get your running shoes on, explore your natural parks and get out there! You are never too old, as Hube reflects, as her passion started well into her maturer years.
Enjoy, hydrate, and get out there! Who knows, you may see Hube on the bush tracks.
