Elisabet Barnes to give a talk at JK2016 Day 1

We are honoured to welcome Elisabet Barnes, world class ultra-endurance runner and niece to Jan Kjellström, to Day 1 of this year’s JK event at Leeds University.  As well as taking in the atmosphere of the Sprint event and presenting prizes during the prize giving ceremony, Elisabet will also be giving a talk. Hear her speak about her family history and connections with orienteering through her grandfather Alvar Kjellström and uncle Jan Kjellström, her running achievements, her motivation and how she became the Marathon des Sables Ladies' Champion in 2015.

Elisabet’s talk will take place on Friday 25th March, 5:00pm in meeting room 6 in the Leeds University Union building, straight after the prize giving.
