About

Lydia Oldham is an ultrarunner, designer, and creative whose work blends endurance sport with visual storytelling. Now based in Portugal, she discovered running in 2020 while living in London and quickly fell in love with ultradistance racing after completing her first 100K, Race to the King. Since then, Oldham has embraced ambitious, self-supported adventures, including completing The Speed Project Solo in 2024—a 500-kilometer journey over five days.

After relocating to Portugal in 2025, she combined her passion for exploration and endurance by running the Portuguese Camino de Santiago from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela. Covering 650 kilometers in 5 days and 17 hours, she set the fastest known time (FKT) for the route. Through her social channels, @comerunwith.me, Oldham documents the adventurous, creative, and authentic side of ultrarunning, sharing gear insights, design inspiration, and the realities of life on the trail. She is currently preparing for the Tahoe 200 Endurance Run in 2027.
