Dot Kesterton
Retired teacher, Dot Kesterton took up running in 2008 after a challenge from a friend to run 10k within 8 months. Her first race, in June 2008, was a Race for Life at Don Valley Stadium in Sheffield and was a “bit of a life changing moment.”
She hasn’t stopped since; running anything from a mile to a marathon and enjoying off-road runs. Dot is coached and supported by Stuart Hale at Accelerate.
Dot says the photo above is one of her favourite action shots - running with Carl Bradfield, summer Solstice 2014, on Mam Tor and Castleton.
