What's it like to be a trail & ultra race director? Due North Events founder Mel Steventon shares her story, how she went from founding the company in 2017, taking it through the covid lockdown and working hard to increase female entrants and encouraging a more ethnically diverse participation. Mel is surely one of today’s trail running race trailblazers, let’s hear how she and her team make it happen. https://duenorthevents.com Podcast version here, or search 'Due North Events Wild Ginger Running' in your usual podcast provider.
