“I quit racing, because I wasn’t having fun. I remember distinctly feeling like a very much a loss of identity” - Sarah Sturm

After a departure from competitive racing, professional off-road cyclist Sarah rediscovered her love and joy of the bike again through time exploring the outdoors with friends, taking on new challenges and allowing the bike to take her to places she'd never otherwise see.

While Sarah acknowledges that the journey is the destination, the process of learning, knowing and embodying the journey is the real catalyst to self-discovery. Stepping away from racing allowed her to find the enjoyment of the bike again, and slowly she was able to bring bike racing back into her life. Her calendar is now solely centered around mountain bike and gravel events, including that in the Life Time Grand Prix presented by Mazda, which take her through places less discovered.

Sarah's reintroduction to racing has been met with great success. She currently sits in 3rd overall in the Life Time Grand Prix, coming off two 3rd place finishes at the Crusher in the Tushar presented by The Creamery (July 9, 2022) and Stages Cycling Leadville Trail 100 MTB (Aug 13, 2022). With two events to go, Sarah is in contention for the overall series win.

The next race in the 2022 Life Time Grand Prix presented by Mazda takes place on September 17, 2022 at the Life Time Chequamegon MTB Festival presented by Trek. This video is brought to you by presenting sponsor of the Life Time Grand Prix, @Mazda USA
