In each race, every single rider has a story to tell. During this year\u2019s Titan Desert, we are charting the journeys of 8 racers from all over the world who are tackling the race in Morocco. With a dearth of experience across many terrains, they all have their unique attributes to succeed on the sands.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here, We Love Cycling speaks to Amanda Bohlin, a former professional triathlete from Sweden, who is no stranger to a challenge.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am looking forward to it, it will be very exciting,\u201d she begins. \u201cIt is my first race of this type.\u201d The 33-year-old is from Atvidaberg in the southwest of the country, around three hours south of the capital Stockholm. Amanda, for much of her career, has only been on the bike for a third of the time, tackling triathlons across the globe and winning numerous titles in the Scandinavian region.<\/p>\n

When asked about her biggest achievements, she answered: \u201cI have a lot of achievements I\u2019m proud of. I can name a few: I did triathlons full time between 2013 and 2018, and have 2 golds in the Nordic championships, also third place in the Swedish Championship XCM 2021.\u201d<\/p>\n

As much as these are all noteworthy, they have no relevance to the sands of Morocco, a challenge Amanda is relishing, alongside visiting something so vastly different to her native Sweden. She explained: \u201cWe have a lot of forests with slippery roots and stones, and, of course, the cold. So, the total opposite of the desert. The challenge will be to have enough energy for all stages and to be hydrated!\u201d<\/p>\n

Even though this will be a different type of endeavour, training has not changed for the former triathlete \u2013 nor has her diet.<\/p>\n

Those challenges of finding the energy and making sure you keep safe await all the riders and for some, in itself, pose the attraction of taking on the \u0160koda Titan Desert<\/a>. For Amanda, though, the ability to take on a six-stage race in the dunes of Morocco was enough to motivate her for this race.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cThe concept of the race is interesting. To be in the desert and all that results from it. The nature is also a big part of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you would like to follow Amanda on her adventure in north Africa, you can find all the information over at the \u0160koda Titan Desert\u2019s official website<\/a> and social media channels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
