From our Bristol HQ to the trails of Albania, Georgia and beyond — meet the people who make Pure Trails run.

The engine room of Pure Trails. From private islands off Mozambique to expedition charters above the Arctic Circle — Roxy has managed it all. Ultra runner, Himalayan climber, outdoor aficionado.
Former pro cyclist who rode the tour alongside Lance Armstrong and Bradley Wiggins. Traded the bike for trails and never looked back. Infectious enthusiasm, a decade of guiding, and Murphy the dog.

The ultimate long-distance trail runner — Ironman and ultra finisher from 30 to 100 miles. UTMB finisher 2022. Off the trails you'll find him on a yoga mat or wild camping. Calm, inspired, professional.
Based in the Lake District, Olivia is a keen trail runner, yoga teacher and qualified Mountain Leader. She loves supporting runners to feel more confident and inspired in the mountains. Exploring a new country on foot is her idea of the perfect adventure.
