In this episode, we're thrilled to feature Ontario's own Chantal Demers, whom we have fondly declared as the "Queen of FKTs". Chantal has held an astonishing 37 Fastest Known Times (FKTs) since 2015 and recently captured the Oak Ridge's 271 kilometre self-supported FKT in an impressive three days, seven hours, and 21 minutes.
Chantal shares her journey from basketball and triathlons to her transition to trail running which included a remarkable recovery from a traumatic spinal cord injury in 2005.
We also dive into her creative strategy and success of breaking up Ontario's Bruce Trail into 9 individual FKTs and her future plans to tackle new trails, both in the U.S. and potentially across the pond in Europe.
Don't miss this inspiring conversation with a true trailblazer!
Here is Chantal…
