Running Wild

One of the few shoots I was able to get out there and shoot during Covid. It was great to get in the hills, meet Ricky and be a part of this super project. The team behind the fantastic trail running mag ‘Like the Wind’ have created this beautiful new book for 2022 called ‘Running Wild’. I shot the Lake District section with runner Ricky Lightfoot in Buttermere a few months back, and the Great Himalaya Trail section with Lizzy Hawker.

Like the Wind

A recent shoot of trail running star Ricky Lightfoot for Like the Wind magazine. Ricky is from the Lakes and it’s a place very big in his heart. He seemed to have a little gem of knowledge for every nook and crag.

A short story about a long run

I arranged to meet Lizzy Hawker – the 5-time winner of the Ultra Trail Du Mont Blanc – in the Everest region to take some pictures of her record-breaking run from Everest Base Camp to Kathmandu. She ran the route non-stop in 63 hours and 8 minutes which is a truly astonishing achievement. We chose to meet on the ridge above Dingboche which has spectacular views of Ama Dablam and the Khumbu valley. We met early in the morning hoping for the best light but cloud was folding in quickly and by the time Lizzy arrived I barely had time to shoot a dozen or so pictures before the mountains disappeared altogether. At the time I was disappointed not to have been able to take more pictures but while the clouds filled the valley I was able to get this shot of Lizzy silhouetted against Ama Dablam. The picture is the now the cover of her recently published book Runner.  

"Runner tells Lizzy’s story and in so doing, uncovers the journey of the physical, mental and emotional challenges that runners go through at the edge of human endurance. From the school girl running the streets of London to breaking records on the world’s mountains and toughest races, Lizzy Hawker is an inspiration to anyone who would like to see how far they can go, running or not."

You can buy Lizzy's book Runner on Amazon
