Katie Quigley – Event Manager
After being a PE teacher for 6 years, Katie pivoted into Event Management with RunThrough in March 2023 and hasn’t looked back! She prefers to run on the trails (and walk up the hills), whilst spending time with friends in nature. Katie enjoys using running to improve physical health, explore beautiful scenery, and connect with likeminded individuals.
She is keen to share the joy that running can bring with more women, of all ages, across the country.
Larren Jeffries – Social Media & Marketing Manager
Larren is passionate about making running a welcoming space for everyone. As the Social Media & Marketing Manager for the Women’s Run Series, she’s dedicated to celebrating runners of all backgrounds, abilities, and paces. A proud ‘back-of-the-pack’ runner, Larren is currently training for her first Marathon and knows firsthand the unique challenge (and rewards!) of every step. Her mission is to help create an inclusive community where every runner feels encouraged and empowered, from start line to finish line and beyond, knowing they belong exactly as they are.
Charlotte Garside – Charity Manager
Charlotte has over a decade of experience in the events fundraising sector, working for charities of all sizes, on some of the UKs most iconic running events. She brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm—even though she’s more of a walker than a runner herself!

She’ll be on hand to support all our charities, from marketing advice, stewardship journeys to making them all prepared for race days!
