Woman Racer Spotlight: Stacie Kemp

Name: Stacie Kemp

Hometown: Glenarden, Maryland (originally Detroit, Michigan)

How did you get into cycling? I ppicked up a bike as a social activity to supplement my running.

How many years have you been racing on Zwift? 1 year+ of Zwift racing

Are you part of a Virtual team? Team Coalition

What do you love most about racing? I love to race because I’m a part of a team of women who challenge me to always push a little further than the last race.

What is your favourite style of race (e.g. points, scratch, iTT, TTT, Chase, duathlon)?  I enjoy the chase but really push on the TTT.

What is your favourite Zwift women’s race series? One of my Zwift races I was finally able to hold on for about half the race and even at the end I had to dig deep for a very long sprint. Didn’t win anything but loved the team support.

What is your favourite food to eat post race? I’m pretty boring post race. I usually have a generous protein shake and maybe some fruit.

What advice would you give to a woman entering her first Zwift race? Your first race be kind and give yourself grace and enjoy the journey.

Any upcoming race you are looking forward to? In real life, it’s cyclocross season. Always fun to race in the grass!
