“I was modeling all these super lean athletes that we see in the media and that are celebrated for their somatotype, even though, you know, they may have achieved that by very unhealthy means.”
Pippa Woolven is the founder of Project RED-S and a former elite and champion steeplechase runner in both the UK and US. In the last few years Pippa has become a first-time parent, and managed Project RED-S, while navigating and exploring this era of her relationship to running and competing. Her work and story have been featured in national publications such as CNN and Runner’s World, raising awareness of the prevalence of RED-S, and its impact on athletes’ overall health.
