Meet fisiocrem sponsored athlete Chelsea, a mum of four working in retail. Chelsea found her feet with running back in 2020, after
losing 60kg to improve her overall health.
Chelsea absolutely loves all types of terrains, but mostly enjoys climbing the muddy mountains during her adventurous trail runs in nature. Chelsea says, “It’s a big relief for me in my mind and helps me refresh and reflect.”
Chelsea’s biggest achievement is running her first Half Marathon back in 2020, followed by her first Ultra Marathon (50km) at the annual Blackall event. Chelsea says, “this was the hardest mental challenge I’ve ever faced, while my mind felt destroyed with all the emotions.” Chelsea has now completed a total of four Ultra Marathons (50km). Her 2023 goals are to tackle more difficult mountain terrains on various trail runs, complete more night runs, and step out of her comfort zone. She wants to become the best version of herself by limiting any self-doubt.
