The Downtime Podcast

Rab Wardell is a talented multi-discipline mountain biker who came up through the ranks of cross country racing to reach World Cup level. Along the way, there have been numerous ups and downs with overtraining and bouts of depression, that have led Rab to question himself and to step away from racing. We sat down for a chat at the Tweed Valley EWS where Rab was racing the insanely tough ebike event. Rab’s open and honest approach, to what has been a challenging career so far, was refreshing and shows just how hard it can be to make it in our sport. It also shows that you can come back from low points in your life and Rab offers some insight into how he did that. Rab also share’s some wisdom on over-training and how to fuel events that I hope you’ll find really useful. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Rab Wardell.
