OLIVIA ROSS-HURST

FOUNDER & HEAD COACH

She was a founding member of the London adidas Runners coaching team, leading weekly community runs across the city of London, and women's runs from the adidas women Brick Lane studio in Shoreditch.
 
Since hanging up her track spikes, Liv has created a lifestyle out of doing things that both terrify and challenge her. Her first foray into multisport was the Rat Race Coast to Coast in Scotland, which she completed solo in 9 hours (to take the win). Since then she learned to swim and ride a bike, and ventured into triathlon. 
 
She qualified for the World Age Group Championships in her first Olympic distance race and since then has represented GB at multiple World and European ITU Championships. In 2017 she ventured into the Ironman world, racing and training around the world. 
 
Since setting up Meraki in 2018, Liv has juggled coaching and training with new challenges and adventures. She currently splits her time between London, Girona, and Boulder; training with and learning from the best in the sport. 
 
Liv is passionate about the power of sport for development and change. She is committed to helping people overcome their fears and seek out a life they love, through sport.
