Lisa Parkes (Ninja Warrior)

from Coffee Chats with Matt Collins Hosted by Coffee Chats

Lisa is one of the country's fittest females, however she has endured many obstacles along her journey. Lisa was lucky to survive after a car accident in South Africa when a drunk driver ran a red light and launched her little VW Beetle around a telegraph pole. But Lisa is grateful for that moment as it has made her extra determined to live an amazing life. She has now made Byron Bay, NSW her home and spends her days looking after her children, training Aussie celebrities and preparing the annual Byron Bay Lighthouse Run which Lisa started. Lisa discusses her remarkable journey and the ups and downs of her life leading up to becoming the first woman to attempt the Australian Ninja Warrior course. It's a great story of determination and resilience.
