Anna Richter Wins The Lost Dot 101

‍

Anna Richter (071) wins the inaugural Lost Dot 101 Race in 3 days, 3 hours, and 30 minutes, with a performance as unrelenting as the weather. Having led the pack from the very start, Anna’s route took them 1,307KM and over 20,000M through Spain and Portugal, where they spent almost every kilometre out front with untouchable endurance.

‍

Arriving in to Córdoba at 21:30CEST, at the time of finishing Anna had a ~10 hour lead in an extremely strong field. Despite looking beyond reach throughout the race, Anna’s tracker is showing only 6 hours and 20 minutes of stopping time — a remarkable feat, especially with no-one hot on their heels. Riding a daily average of over 400KM, Anna has set an incredibly high bar for performance on the Lost Dot 101 in its first year. 

‍

This whole race, Anna has been riding with dogged determinism. With such a big gap to the next rider, we asked why they didn’t stop for a sit-down meal or more rest: “What’s the point in racing if you don’t race?”

‍

Congratulations, Anna. Thanks for an excellent show.
