Mel Sykes is an ultra-marathon runner from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire. She has an inspiring story of resilience and determination. Mel was diagnosed with a rare brain condition called Chiari malformation, which caused her to lose her balance, suffer double vision, and experience other severe symptoms. After undergoing brain surgery in October 2023, doctors told her she might never run again. 

However, Mel proved them wrong! Just four months after her surgery, she ran an 18-mile race, and now she's preparing to take on the 268-mile Spine Race.

Mel's journey is a testament to her incredible strength and perseverance.
