Nikki Frost is back for another Delirious W.E.S.T. series.

And yes, she’s also my daughter, which means there is absolutely no shortage of opinions about who is responsible for any of this. 😂

Nikki’s relationship with running started long before she had much say in the matter, thanks to a childhood spent being dragged along to running events by her mother. Then, after barely running for years, things escalated rather quickly from getting her 10,000 steps a day to ultras.

In this first catch-up for the Delirious West 2027 series, we get into that slightly accidental return to running, Nikki’s rather relaxed approach to planning enormous events despite being ridiculously organised in every other part of her life, and what happened when she took on the Delirious 200 in 2026.

That attempt didn’t quite go to plan.

Now she’s coming back to finish the job, with a 100 miler at Kosciuszko along the way and a potentially questionable new member of her crew learning the ropes.

This could be an interesting six months. 😂

If the stories in this series are giving you that little itch to be part of it, have a look at the event details and see whether 2027 might be your year.
