Nikki Barnard
Born a Yorkshire lass but raised in the West Country, Nikki moved to Chamonix, to ski, serve beer to the locals of Chamonix and dance on bar tops, way back in the Winter of 2004. The Winter brought her to Chamonix, but the Summer certainly kept her there. From a family that spent many of their holidays exploring the UK fells, it was only natural that when Nikki grew up she would want to perhaps explore a little further. Nikki has worked hard to train and run long distances and has been fortunate enough to have run some incredible races and routes all over the world. This lass is a big fan of making the most of the time we have on this wonderful planet and will always embrace everything about personal achievement, no matter how big or small. Based in Chamonix, currently working towards her BSc in Sport & Exercise Psychology, she is a fully qualified VTCT/ITEC Sports Massage Therapist, LiRF Run Leader, UESCA Ultra running & CiRF Trail/Fell Running coach, UK & International Mountain Leader & holds a WMT Advanced Medicine certificate.
