About Elle 

Picture
I have been running for several years but I always used to run on my own.

​During my pregnancy and the birth of my son in 2015 I developed severe anxiety, I know how much running can help with mental health issues as I have history of this and I would use running and a healthy diet to keep it in check. It was hard to keep motivated on my own so I took the leap and joined Women on the Run. 

I was nervous on my first run with the group but as soon as I arrived I was made to feel very welcome. After 1 year of running with Julie I was encouraged to become a Leader and I completed my Leadership in Running and Fitness qualification in 2017 which was supported by the club.

​I am a Mental Health Ambassador for the club. I am a success story of how running, especially with a group, can help with mental wellbeing.

​I am also an ambassador for the Devon Girls Can which is part of #Thisgirlcan campaign through Active Devon.
