Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity in the Bristol and West area, open to everyone—whether you're a member or not!
Elise Downing, the first woman to run around the coast of Britain, will be sharing her inspiring story and the invaluable lessons she learned from her remarkable journey. As someone who had no experience in long-distance running, Elise’s journey is proof that anyone can push past their limits. She started with a single disastrous marathon where she dressed up as a Crayola crayon, couldn’t read a map, and was terrified of cows. Yet, through sheer determination and grit, she completed the incredible feat of running around Great Britain, carrying her kit on her back and self-supporting every step of the way.
Her journey didn’t stop there—Elise went on to conquer even more endurance adventures, each one teaching her more about what the body and mind are capable of when you take on challenges you never thought possible.
This event offers a rare chance to hear from Elise directly, gain motivation and insights into overcoming obstacles, and learn how to tackle big challenges with confidence. Whether you're preparing for an endurance event, facing personal challenges, or simply looking for inspiration, this talk will leave you with practical takeaways to guide you into the year ahead.
Come ready to ask questions during the Q&A session and leave feeling empowered, inspired, and equipped to take on the new year with renewed focus and determination!
