Eleanor Whyman-Davis

Biography

Elsey, comes from Chester in the UK, is one of the UK’s finest marathon runners. She works as a doctor, and temporarily put a pause on running activities due to COVID as she supported on the frontline of the pandemic. This makes her remarkable race times even more impressive given the time away from running and training.

Elsey has managed continued success in her running career, and has achieved success at the London Marathon and Valencia Marathon where she recorded a personal best at the time of 2:33:24. 

Elsey has recently entered the ultra running discipline and has performed exceptionally well with strong performances at Ultra Sierra Nervada and Transgrancanaira, no doubt there will be more success in the future.

It's fair to say that Elsey has achieved some incredible things in her career, and we are delighted to have her on The North Face athlete team.
