57: Trish Patterson on her Winter Dragon FKT

57: Trish Patterson on her Winter Dragon FKT

I’m so happy to welcome Trish Patterson for this first episode of 2026. She is is an adventurer, based in the UK who loves running and exploring in the mountains, and this December, she became the first person ever to complete a Winter Dragon FKT. It represents 370 kilometres and over 16,000 meters of elevation along the spine of the mountains of Wales.

This FKT is the result of years building experience, skills, and confidence, and we explore where her sense of adventure comes from, with curiosity as a starting point always. She shares more on her experience, how she imagined and organised it, and some key moments and challenges. We also discuss the importance of getting out of our comfort zones, and staying open to opportunities.


Subscribe to "She Trails Podcast" for future episodes, where we dive into women trail runner stories, and get inspired to explore new paths and seek our own adventures, whatever they may be.
