Just last week Hailey Moore became the fourth person to ever complete the Doom Route, created by Andrew Onermaa. She didn’t just finish though, she set a new FKT (fastest known time) with a time of 2d 15h 30m, setting a new benchmark for racers this weekend. Hailey drove herself from Boulder, CO to Oark, AR so she could do an ITT (individual time trial) on a seriously tough route. This is bikepack racing in one of its most pure forms, just you, your bike, and territory unknown, finishing only to an empty parking lot late at night.
This was only Hailey’s second bikepacking race and with this time she quickly put herself on my radar and I’m sure most of the community took notice as well. Will we be seeing Hailey sign up for more of these races/ITT’s? Listen to today’s episode to find out!
Coincidentally, the first ever Doom Race is taking place in two days, so this is a very timely episode for any of those racers. I made sure to get Hailey’s secrets for a successful run at Doom.
