Having known Talia Sullivan for years, when she got a running scholarship to do an art degree at an American college I couldn’t wait to follow along through Instagram and see what it was really like.

We discuss everything from how she got in without a 5k time to her name, to being upgraded to a ‘full ride’ scholarship, and then how injury actually meant she could stay longer.

Enjoy and follow Talia @taliassullivan and @taliasullivan.art - her art is epic too!
