What if you could hang out with adventurous endurance athletes who've participated in the World's Toughest Race and also dealt with tough stuff in their own lives; ask them about how they got back up when they were down on their knees; their challenges, successes, and failures; their worldviews and habits; then take an insight or two to inspire your own growth? That's what we do each week on Tales... more

This podcast is awesome, just gutted i’m late to the party as I’d have loved to keep it going. I’m sure there are so many more racers to tell their stories.
Great host, great content, great podcast.
This podcast couldn't be more enjoyable! Wieck is such a relaxed interviewer and every episode articulates something profound about what makes endurance sports so fascinating in a way that's really rare. So glad I found it! .
So inspirational!
I am a huge fan of eco-challenge and was skeptical about the podcast but women are under-represented in eco-challenge coverage so I gave it a listen. Sonja has given us a voice desperately missing not just from eco-challenge but all endurance sports. But she goes much deeper than that. Sonja is poignant, smart, and introspective. She is highly skilled at interviewing and her vulnerability, sharing her own experiences, makes this a must listen. It is my favorite podcast each week.
This show gives such great insight into the inner workings of eco-challenge. It’s fascinating and inspiring to listen to.
