Ep. 17 – Chris Burkard


With 3.4 million Instagram followers you likely know Chris Burkard. He is one of the world’s most prolific adventure photographers, known for going to extremes to get “the shot”. However, what is less well known is his passion for Cycling. This past year Chris started training for a 844 mile race that circumnavigates Iceland called WOW Cyclothon. He had an incredible race managing to set a new course record by 3.5 hours! And remember, he’s just doing this in his spare time for fun! In this episode I catch up with Chris after his historic race in Iceland and before he set off to Russia for a few weeks. We mostly talk about his race and his passion for cycling. It was a great chat and I hope you find it as enjoyable as I did.
