I did NOT expect to podium at UNBOUND GRAVEL 2026

I did NOT expect to podium at Unbound Gravel. 100 miles of Kansas dirt, one very emotional finish line, and a result I'm still processing. This one meant more than a race. I'm from Kansas, and I wanted to come home and race in front of the people I love. This is the full story: the why, the nutrition plan that actually held up, the start-line chaos, and a finish I let myself imagine but never really believed. Thank you to everyone who got me there.
