As a 5,000m and 10,000m track athlete, British-born Julia Bleasdale used to follow the sun, travelling to Ethiopia and Arizona to train hard for her races (it worked, she came 8th in both distances in the London 2012 Olympic Games). Now, after calling time on her track career, she’s embracing proper seasons and enjoying ultra-distance trail running from her new home in the beautiful Swiss mountain village of Pontresina.
I caught up with the On ambassador during a recent trip to Switzerland, where she showed us around some of her favourite trails.
