SPIDEY GANG
FOUNDERS
Papa Spider
Mike Bullock, co-founder, and master-of-positivity, is a veteran ultra-runner, and the self-proclaimed ideas-man … originally a 17 minute 5k whippet, injuries and old-age gave him the opportunity to focus on longer distances…108 miles in 24 hours is his longest run, and he’s now completed over 180 marathons & ultras…but he’s never happier than when he’s eating cake & poring over maps to plan new & exciting routes, or running up the biggest hills he can find.
Mama Spider
Susan Mansfield, co-founder, is Spider Runners engine room; nothing happens without Susan’s magic touch, and no run is complete without one of her tall tales 😂
With over 170 marathons & ultras under her belt, Susan loves a good point-to-point multi-day race, testing her navigational skills to the limit. Whilst Papa prefers the uphills, she declares herself as the Queen of Downhills.
ADMIN SUPPORT TEAM
Andrew
Andrew Williams, is part of the admin team… as well as our MENTAL HEALTH AMBASSADOR.
Andrew shares our Values of Support, Encouragement & Fun, and has been fundamental in many of the events we’ve put on in the last few years.
Like many of us, Andrew has tackled tough challenges in recent times, and (very importantly) he’s a huge advocate for talking openly about his experiences and the benefits of running.
