Hannah Otto recently became the fastest known woman to ride the 137-mile-long Kokopelli's trail from Moab, Utah to Loma, Colorado, besting the previous fastest known time by over an hour. In addition to racing gravel and mountain bikes, she's also a certified athletic trainer. 

• How do you feel now that you can finally talk about your accomplishment? Were you worried someone else would make an FKT attempt between then and now?
• In October you made your first attempt, but it didn't work out. What happened.
• What did you do differently the second time around?
• What was your bike setup? What did you eat?
• How do you pace yourself for a ride like this?
• Do you think this FKT rules that should be updated or clarified to allow film crews as long as they don't offer any assistance?
• How much of a role does luck play in mountain bike racing, versus skill and fitness?
• Do individual time trials also make you a faster racer in more traditional events, or is this a specialized skill set?
• What's next? Do you have any more FKT attempts on the horizon?
