Juliette grew up playing football but after the loss of a close friend in 2017, she turned to running as her coping mechanism. Over the past five years she's developed a love of hiking, trail running and cycling and has taken them to the extreme, running multi-day ultramarathons through the desert, completing an Ironman, travelling through Patagonia for two months and last year she she was part of the all female BTR team at Adidas TERREX Infinite trails race in Austria.

Juliette is passionate about improving access to the outdoors for women and young people, particularly those from diverse backgrounds. She’s an active member of the Black Trail Runners community and her experiences out on the trails led to her being chosen as the cover star of Women's Running Magazine in April 2023. 

Join us as we delve into Juliette's inspiring journey and her mission to make outdoor adventures more inclusive for everyone.
