Interview: Nicky Spinks at the Keswick Mountain Festival 2017

inov-8 athlete and DOUBLE Bob Graham Record record holder Nicky Spinks explained how she was able to run and speed-hike 132 miles over 84 peaks with 54,000ft of ascent in just 45 hrs 30mins after minimal training in May 2016. Find out her advice to you for doing a single Bob Graham too!

Nicky was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006 and had a mastectomy in 2012. Incredibly, she broke the Lake District 24hour Fell record in 2011, climbing 64 summits, and she held the ladies record for all three classic UK mountain rounds until Jasmin Paris smashed them in 2016. This April (2017) she broke the Joss Naylor Lakeland Challenge record as part of her 50th birthday celebrations.
