From Lockdown Laps to FKT's

Lydia started running during lockdown whist living in the UK. From very slow 2km runs, Lydia soon progressed to creating her own approach to running and ultra. She did road marathons, but did them different, failed at her first ultra, but then something clicked...

• The Speed Project solo in the USA – 500km in 5 days.

• Oman Desert Marathon – done.

•FKT across 650km of the Camino de Santiago in Portugal – done.

Now she lines up at OCC during UTMB week and follows up with her own fundraising project in the UK.

2026? she's coming to Costa Rica to face heat, jungle, mountains, and coastline of The Coastal Challenge
