Name: Iwona Symzd

I have only really known Iwona for just over a year but it feels like we've been friends for ages. I think it's because we have been on so many great mtb adventures together over the last year.
Iwona is seriously fast. She is in with a chance of being amongst the top women in this race. She is the current European champion for 24 hr racing and is currently training seriously for the 24 hr world championships with a view to a podium position. She has been placing in the top 10 in British National Cross Country Series this year.
Iwona is also always great fun to have around. She has a cheeky sense of humour and never takes life too seriously but underneath all that she is a very tough cookie: you have to be if you are prepared to race your bike for 24hrs non stop with all the sleep deprivation , general discomfort and extreme levels of fitness that are involved.
