Woman Racer Spotlight: Paige Wunrow

Name: Paige Wunrow

Hometown: Glendale Heights, Illinois USA

How did you get into cycling? Trying to beat my commute times during graduate school.

How many years have you been racing on Zwift? Almost 4.5 years

Are you part of a Virtual team? Yes, Revolution Velo Racing 

What do you love most about racing? Being able to be competitive while at home and trying to make it to the final sprint!

What is your favourite style of race (e.g. points, scratch, iTT, TTT, Chase, duathlon)? Points

What is your favourite Zwift women’s race series? I really enjoy any series that includes a scratch race and a points race. The mini races are also becoming a favorite.

What is your most memorable racing experience, inside or outside or BOTH? Winning my state scratch race on the velodrome. On Zwift, winning a 20-lap race on the Crit course.

What is your favourite food to eat post race? A burger

What advice would you give to a woman entering her first Zwift race? Be ready to go with 5 seconds to go and it’s always worth it to give your all to stay with the group. And if you don’t, find a group and practice riding in a group to figure out how you best race!

Any upcoming race you are looking forward to? Hoping for more women’s races in the summer to meet more ladies!
