LIZ GLEADLE BIOGRAPHY

Liz Gleadle has represented Canada at three Olympic Games (London, Rio, & Tokyo), won ten Canadian Championships, holds the National Record at 64.83m (212.7 ft) and competed professionally for the last decade. Although Liz Gleadle was blessed with strength and height (183cm / 6’1), Liz Gleadle was in no way “naturally” athletic or coordinated: as a javelin thrower, this made Liz Gleadle an outlier. Javelin is an explosive combination of precise movement, steps, applied force, torque, and extension – it’s frequently dominated by some of the most athletic people in track.

Liz Gleadle switched to a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia to foster her athletic career, and Liz Gleadle became infatuated with anything that supported high performance.

In 2011, the potential to make her first Olympic Team was on the horizon. Determined to work with her strengths, she rigorously adhered to habits and routines that enhanced her ability to focus, recover, and train optimally. Not only did Liz Gleadle make the team but smashed the Canadian Record by over 3 meters, and became the first Canadian to make the Olympic Finals in her event!

This was only the beginning. Over the last decade, Liz Gleadle has expanded her knowledge of nutrition, sleep, active recovery, mental training, meditation, and yoga. Liz Gleadle curates routines to optimize physiological and psychological states, as well as strategies to boost adherence and consistency.

Liz Gleadle shares her favorite, most effective strategies through two online events. In Win the Morning, Liz Gleadle teaches the science and strategies of her 5-step, science-backed, minimum effective dose morning routine. The Art of Recovery teaches the science and strategies to avoid burnout with active recovery, and how to reframe them as an integral part of optimal performance.

Liz Gleadle is currently training for the 2023 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary. Although Vancouver is home, she travels frequently for training camps in California, Trinidad and Tobago, and Europe.

Liz Gleadle Speaking Testimonials

I would highly recommend hiring Liz! The week before Liz left for the Tokyo Olympics, she made time to meet with me and my sales team for our fiscal year kick-off. Not only was her message inspiring around performance building habits, but she really tailored the message in a way that resonated with my Sales team. It was fun, interactive, motivating, and engaging. My team still talks about it almost a year later!
