PLAY WELL: Turia Pitt on using sport as her north star
PLAY WELL: Turia Pitt on using sport as her north star
Known for her near-death experience running the Australian outback, Turia Pitt has become a much-loved household name. What you might not know is that building off her own rehabilitation experience, she absolutely understands how to get women running, so much so that 4,000 women (and counting!) have changed their relationship with sport as a result.
With an appreciation of needing to re-evaluate our relationship with sport, Turia’s now on a mission to make women feel safer while moving, all while raising two boys with her partner Michael.
