TALK: Trish Patterson
Join us for an evening with ultra trail and mountain runner Trish Patterson, whose incredible endurance achievements have earned recognition across the UK, including recently completing the first recorded winter Fastest Known Time (FKT) on the legendary Dragon’s Back route through Wales.
Trish will share stories from the mountains, the realities of long-distance endurance challenges, and the mindset required to take on some of the toughest terrain and conditions in Britain. From resilience and preparation to adventure and overcoming setbacks, this is a unique opportunity to hear firsthand from one of the UK’s best mountain athletes.
Join us for our next informal gathering of South East climbers and walkers and get involved in the BMC. Area Meetings are run by volunteers and provide an opportunity for you to discuss issues and influence decisions affecting climbers and walkers locally and nationally. All are welcome.
