Four-times Ironman triathlon world champion and new Bristol resident Chrissie Wellington will be leading a special running workshop on Wednesday with the Great Western Runners Club in Redland.

The session at Bristol Lawn Tennis Club will see Wellington giving advice to those preparing for the Bristol Half Marathon, which takes place on Sunday, September 15.

Wellington said: “I’m thrilled to be able to support the Bristol Half Marathon, particularly in this special, silver anniversary year.

“As a runner I know the importance of having the right physical and metal strategies when approaching a long-distance run.

“I’m looking forward to working with the Run Bristol team and meeting local runners.”

The workshop session on Wednesday, August 21 starts at 6pm.
