Looney's experiences enduring the hardest and longest mountain bike races across the globe have accomplished more than an impressive list of accolades. She has sought out races that had never been done and in countries that most people wouldn't travel to alone. It was in those experiences that the value of pushing past the limits of the comfort zone became clear. "Trying new things completely shifts your frame of reference and dramatically improves self-confidence. You develop a wider capacity to experience life and will achieve more ambitious goals. We die a slow death of complacency by doing things the same way and not ever feeling that slight anxiety when trying something new." Sonya brings her experience as a mountain bike pioneer to life and shares how you unlock your true potential and break down barriers.
