Lou came to Australia in 2006 and continued her love for rock climbing by moving to the Blue Mountains. After dabbling in a few trail races she ran her first ultra (The North Face 50) in 2015 finishing in the top 10 women. After that trail running gradually took over her life!

Lou loves the places trail running has taken her and the people she has met. She has raced in Hong Kong, New Zealand, Japan, Turkey, Spain, Switzerland, Italy and France as well as one race in her home country of England.
