Elise Downing |From marathon meltdown to record breaking runner

Start a ripple ...

Elise Downing is a runner, writer public speaker and most well known for running 5000 miles around the coast of Great Britain This achievement came as quite a surprise to everybody who knew her as prior to this the highlight of her sporting career had been running a marathon dressed as a Crayola crayon whilst crying! With no prior experience of ultra running, or solo adventuring 23 year old Elise set out on this challenge just knowing it was something she had to do and in August 2016, ten months after setting out, she became the first woman and youngest person to run a lap of Great Britain self-supported. I am am delighted to have Elise join me on the Start a Ripple Podcast to find out a little bit more about this mad adventure she embarked on!
