Caroline Livesey is an adventurer, extreme triathlete, ultracyclist, elite gravel cyclist and triathlon and life coach.  Caroline started her journey into triathlon while serving with the Royal Engineers in the British Army. After 10 years service she left as a Major in 2013 and pursued a career as a professional triathlete (while working full time as a geotechnical design consultant), originally in Ironman events.  In 2019 circumstances conspired to throw her into her first extreme triathlon, Canadaman XTRI. Winning this event was the catalyst for her to work on her mindset and physical adaptations to take on the gruelling climate conditions which are typical for the Extreme Triathlons such as Norseman and Celtman. She has since won numerous extreme events, and has just returned from winning Patagonman in Chile for the second time.  Caroline is also an elite gravel cyclist, competing for Team GB at the last two World Championships (where she thinks she was the oldest on the start line by some 20 years). She loves single day UCI gravel races but also ultra distance, and has competed at Badlands (3rd), finished Transcordilleras (Colombia), and completed coast-to-coast across Costa Rica in less than two days. She completed the 1000km Transcordilleras, an 8-day stage race, in February this year. Caroline's husband Mark is a documentary / film maker and they make films about their adventures (YouTube, Amazon Prime - The Brick Session). Their purpose is to provide information and inspiration to others so that they might break down their own false beliefs to take on their own challenges.  Caroline and Mark have founded Peak Education Nepal - a charity bringing education to the children of poor families in Nepal who cannot afford to go to school. They became involved in this while in Nepal for an event in 2022, and plan to go back this year to develop the charity and do another mountain trail running adventure.   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 7: Jim's Story II'Your friends are in the house now,' said Ben Gunn.'I must go to them,'I said. 'Are you coming with me?'No,' said Ben. 'But you know where to find me. Come tomorrow afternoon.'I looked at the Hispaniola, out on the sea, and saw the pirates' flag.'They have the ship now,' I thought.The pirates on the beach made a big fire.They started to drink and to talk loudly.I waited for a time,then went to the house.I told Dr Livesey about my meeting with Ben Gunn up on the hill.'Tell me about this man,' said the doctor. 'Is he going to help us?''Yes, I think he is,' I said.'There are fifteen pirates now,' said the doctor. 'And there are six of us. Seven, with Ben Gunn.'I was very tired and I slept well that night.The next morning one of our men said: 'Look! Someone's coming! A man with a white flag.''Don't shoot!' said the man. 'It's me. John Silver.''What do you want?' asked Captain Smollett.'Captain Silver wants to talk to you,' said Long John.'Captain Silver now?Come on, then,' said Captain Smollett.Long John came slowly up the hill to the house.We all watched him.'Yes?' asked the captain.'One of our men is dead,' said Silver. 'You killed him in the night.'The captain said nothing.'We didn't kill that man,' I thought. 'Ben Gunn killed him. Now there are only fourteen pirates.''We want that treasure,' Silver said. 'And you've got a map, right?''Perhaps,' said the captain.'I know you've got it,' said Silver. 'Give us the map. Then you can leave the island with us, or,if you like, you can stay here.''Is that all?' asked Captain Smollett. 'Now, listen to me, Silver. You can't find the treasure and you can't sail the ship. We aren't going to help you find the treasure, so you can go now. I have nothing more to say to you.''Then we're going to fight you,' said Silver angrily, and he went away, walking slowly down the hill.It was a hot day.We waited for a longtime and then the pirates started shooting again.Suddenly some of the pirates ran out of the trees up to the house.'Get them!' said the captain.We all fought hard.We killed three of the pirates and the others ran away.But when we got back inside the house, we found that Joyce was dead.Hunter and the captain were hurt, too.'Five pirates are dead,'said the doctor.'Good,' said the captain. 'Now they have nine men and we have five.'The pirates went back to the beach.Everything was quiet.Later that day Hunter died.The doctor left the house.'He's going to meet Ben Gunn,' I thought.It was very hot inside the house and I did not like waiting.So I took some food and a gun and went to look for Ben Gunn's boat.After about an hour I found it.It was very small and light.'I can take this boat and go out to the Hispaniola at night,' I thought.I sat down and waited.Night came, and it was very dark.

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 6: Dr Livesey's StoryAt half-past one in the afternoon two, small boats went from the ship to the island.We looked for Jim Hawkins on the Hispaniola, but he was not there.We waited on the ship.There were six pirates with us.Then Hunter and I took a boat and went to the island.I wanted to see the house on the island.The house was strong and it was in a good place.'We can stay here,' I thought. 'There's water, and we can bring food and guns from the ship.'Then I heard the pirates fighting in the trees.'They're killing someone,' I thought. 'Perhaps Jim Hawkins is dead.'Hunter and I went back to the Hispaniola.I told the captain about the house, and we started to put food into the small boat.The pirates on the ship did not hear us.Joyce and I carried the food from the beach to the house.Joyce stayed in the house with his gun and I went back to the ship.We put more food and our guns into the small boat and dropped all the other guns into the sea.Then Mr. Trelawney's men Redruth and Hunter, Mr. Trelawney, the captain and I left the ship.There were five of us in a small boat and we moved very slowly.Then we saw the pirates on the Hispaniola.They had the big gun on the ship.'They're going to shoot at us,' somebody said.We tried to go faster.Mr. Trelawney shot at the men on the ship.He hit one of them.Then the pirates on the island ran out of the trees.They began to run along the beach.'Quickly!' said the captain. 'They're going to catch us. Leave the boat.'We heard the big gun on the Hispaniola behind us; we jumped on to the beach and ran.Most of our food and our guns went down into the sea with the small boat.We heard the pirates running along the beach behind us, but we ran quickly through the trees to the house.We arrived at the house and turned to shoot at the pirates.We hit one of the pirates, and the other men ran away.Then one of the pirates turned and shot Redruth through the head.Captain Smollett said sadly: 'Now there are only five of us and we have food for ten days. What are we going to do?'Suddenly we heard somebody outside.'Dr Livesey,' said Jim Hawkins, 'it's me, Jim. I'm here.'So then there were six of us.

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 4: Pirates on The ShipMr. Trelawney liked to give the sailors things to make them happy.There was always a big barrel of fruit for them.One night, after I finished my work on the ship, I went to get some fruit from the barrel.Everything was very quiet.I climbed inside the barrel to get the fruit.Suddenly a heavy man sat down next to the barrel.He began to speak.It was Long John Silver.I stayed very quiet.'Yes,' he said.' Flint was our captain. I sailed with him many times. We had one big fight. I lost my leg and Old Pew lost his eyes. I saw a lot of fighting and a lot of treasure,too.''Ah,' said a younger man. 'Flint was a bad man! And where are all Flint's men now?''Most of them are here,' said Silver quietly, 'on this ship. Old Pew's dead. And you, young man,do you want to help us? Do you want to be a pirate?''Yes, I do.''Good,' said Silver.'You're going to be a good pirate.'Then a second man spoke to Long John Silver.It was Israel Hands.'I don't like our captain, John,' he said. 'Let's kill Smollett and the others.''No. We must wait.We must have Captain Smollett to sail the ship,' said Silver. 'And Mr.Trelawney and the doctor have the map. Let them find the treasure first. Then we can kill them. Now get me some fruit from this barrel.'I was very afraid.But then someone said, 'Land!'Everybody ran to seethe island. I waited for a minute, then I climbed out of the barrel and ran, too.The ship was now quite near an island.'Does anybody know this island?' Captain Smollett asked.'I do,' said Silver.'There were a lot of pirates here in the old days. That hill in the center of the island is called the Spy Glass.'Then Captain Smollett showed Silver a map of the island.Silver looked at the map very carefully, but it was not Billy Bones's map.It did not show the treasure.I went to Dr Livesey. 'Can I speak to you please, doctor?' I said.'What is it, Jim?' he asked.Then I told the doctor, Mr. Trelawney and Captain Smollett about Long John Silver.'Most of the sailors are pirates,' I said. 'They want to kill us and take the treasure.''Thank you, Jim,' said Mr. Trelawney. 'And Captain Smollett, you were right. I was wrong. I'm sorry.''Silver is a very clever man,' said the doctor. 'We all liked him.''What are we going to do, captain?' asked Mr. Trelawney.

Its name is Hispaniola.I found a good man to be our cook on the ship.He's an old sailor and he has an inn here in Bristol.He is going to help me find sailors for our ship.He knows a lot of men here.His name is Long John Silver.He has only one leg.Please send Jim Hawkins to Bristol tomorrow.Trelawney.”I was very excited.The next morning I said goodbye to my mother and started for Bristol.Mr. Trelawney met met here.'When do we sail?' I asked him.'Sail?' he said. 'We sail tomorrow!'I had something to eat, then Mr. Trelawney gave me a letter for Long John Silver at the Spy Glass Inn.There were a lot of sailors in the Spy Glass Inn.I looked round and saw a tall strong man with one leg.'He's Long John Silver,' I thought.'Mr. Silver, sir?'I asked.'Yes, that's my name. And who are you?'I gave him the letter and he took my hand.Suddenly, one of the other men in the inn jumped up and ran to the door.I knew him.It was Black Dog!'Stop him!' I said. 'Stop him! It's Black Dog!''Harry,' said Silver, 'run and catch that man.'A man got up and ran after Black Dog.Long John Silver turned to me."Who was that man?'he asked. 'Black what?''Dog, sir,' I said.'He's a pirate.''A pirate!' said Silver. 'Ben, run and help Harry. You can catch him!'But Ben and Harry came back without Black Dog.'We lost him,' they said.'Well, what is Mr.Trelawney going to think?' said Silver. 'You know, Jim, we did try to catch him. And nobody in the inn knew that he was the pirate Black Dog. Now, Jim,come with me. We're going to see Mr. Trelawney.'Long John Silver walked with me to meet Mr. Trelawney and Dr Livesey.He told them about Black Dog.Mr. Trelawney listened carefully, and then said, 'Well, we can't do anything about Black Dog now.John, tell all the men to come to the ship this afternoon.'The doctor turned tome. 'Come and see the ship, Jim,' he said. And meet our captain, Captain Smollett.'So we went to the Hispaniola.'Well, Captain Smollett,' said Mr. Trelawney, 'I hope everything is ready.''Well, sir,' said the captain, 'it is, but l'm not happy about it. I don't like the sailors.''Oh?' said Mr.Trelawney. He was very angry with the captain.But Dr Livesey said,'Tell me, Captain Smollett. Why are you unhappy?'Well,' said the captain, I don't know where we are going. But all the sailors say we are going to look for treasure. I don't like it. I don't know these men.''Well, what do you want?' asked the doctor.'We must have all the guns in our rooms, sir. And Mr. Trelawney's men must sleep near us, not with the other sailors.''And?' said Mr. Trelawney.'You have a map. Thesailors know about it. Nobody must see that map.''Right, sir,' said Mr.Trelawney. 'We can do that. But I think they're very good men.''Trelawney,' said the doctor later, 'you have two good men, Captain Smollett and Long John Silver.''I don't know about the captain,' said Mr. Trelawney angrily.Then Captain Smollett found me. 'And you, boy, go and help the cook!'We worked all night and in the morning, the ship left Bristol.The Hispaniola was a good ship and we had good weather.The sailors all liked Long John Silver.'In the old days,before he lost his leg, he was a good fighter,' some of them said.' He was always very good to me. '

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 2: Flint's MapA week later, the captain came down and sat in his usual chair.I went outside the inn and looked up and down the road.I saw another man on the road.He wore a long black coat and he walked very slowly.'He can't see,'I thought.The man arrived in front of the inn and turned his face to me. 'Can you tell me, please, where I am?'I told him.He listened carefully ;'You're young,' he said. 'Take my hand, my young friend, and take me inside.'He took my hand, He was very strong.'Now my young friend,' he said, 'take me to the captain. Quickly! I can break your arm.'When the captain saw the man, he did not move.The man put something into the captain's hand and then left the inn.The captain looked at the black paper in his hand.Then he read the words on it.'Ten o'clock!They're coming at ten o'clock,' he said. 'We've got six hours!'He tried to stand up, but he was too ill.I ran for my mother,but it was too late.When we came back the captain was dead on the floor.My mother and I went to the village, but the people there did not want to help us.They were too afraid.Our friend the doctor was away.Nobody could help us.'I must get my money from the captain's box,' my mother said. 'It's our money.'We opened the box.There were some old coats and shirts and a bag of money.My mother began to take the money.'Quickly!' I said. 'It's nearly ten o'clock.'It was a cold night,and very quiet.Suddenly, I heard a sound on the road.Then I heard someone stop outside the inn.We waited, but then everything was quiet again.Nothing moved.'Quickly, mother!' I said. 'Take all the captain's money.''No,' she said. 'I don't want it all.'Then we heard someone again, outside the front door.'Let's go without the money,'my mother said.I took an envelope from the captain's box. 'I'm going to take this,' I said.We left the inn very quietly through the backdoor.We heard men running along the road to the inn.We stopped behind some trees and watched the men.There were seven or eight of them, all pirates.They broke down the door of the inn and ran inside.'Bill's dead!'someone said.'Open his box!' a second man said.'Flint's map!Where's Flint's map?''We can't find it!''It's not here!''It's those people at the inn - it's that boy! The boy's got the map. Find them, boys!'The men moved quickly.They looked into every room in the inn.'Listen!' one of them said. 'Someone's coming! We must run!''No, find the boy!He's near here somewhere, I know.'Then I heard a gun.The pirates heard it too, and began to run away.We waited for a minute or two and then we went back to the inn.'What did the pirates want?' a man from the village asked me. 'Did they find the captain's money?''Yes,' I said. 'But I think they wanted this.' I showed him the envelope. 'I think there's a map inside it.''You must take it to Mr.Trelawney,'he told me.When I arrived at Mr.Trelawney's house, Dr Livesey was there.'Hello Jim, what is it?' he asked.I told him about the pirates.'Let's see that map,' the doctor said.

Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 1: Jim Hawkins' Story IMy father had an inn near the sea.It was a quiet place.One day, an old man came to our door.He was tall and strong, and his face was brown.His old blue coat was dirty and he had a big old box with him.He looked at the inn, then he looked at the sea.My father came to the door.At first the old man did not speak.He looked again at the sea, and at the front of the inn.'I like this place,'he said. 'Do many people come here?''No,' said my father.'I'm going to stay here,' said the old man. 'I want a bed and food. I like watching the sea and the ships. You can call me Captain.'He threw some money on the table.'That's for my bed and my food,' he said.And so the old captain came to stay with us.He was always quiet.In the evenings he sat in the inn and in the day he watched the sea and the ships.One day he spoke tome.'Come here, boy,' he said, and he gave me some money.'Take this, and look out for a sailor with one leg.'He was afraid of that sailor with one leg.I was afraid too.I looked for the man with one leg, but I never saw him.Then winter came,and it was very cold.My father was ill,and my mother and I worked very hard.Early one January morning, the captain went to the beach.I helped my mother to make the captain's breakfast.The door opened and a man came in.His face was very white and he had only three fingers on his left hand.I could see that he was a sailor.'Can I help you?' I asked.The man looked at the captain's breakfast table.'Is this table for my friend Bill?' he asked.'I don't know your friend Bill,' I said. 'It's the captain's table.''The captain?' he said. 'Well, they sometimes call my friend Bill the Captain. Is he here in the house?''No. He's out,'I said.The man sat down and waited for the captain.Then the captain came into the room.He went to his table and sat down.The captain turned round quickly.His face went white.Suddenly, he looked old and ill.'Come, Bill, you know me. You know an old friend, Bill,' said the man.'Black Dog!' said the captain.'Yes,' said the man.'It's me, Black Dog. I wanted to see my old friend Billy.''Well, here I am,'said the captain. 'What do you want?''I want to talk to you, Bill,' Black Dog said.The captain looked at me.'Leave the room,boy,' he said, 'and don't listen at the door.'They talked for along time.Then I heard them talking angrily.'No, no, no!' said the captain.There was a fight and then Black Dog ran out of the house.The captain's face was white.'I must get out of here!'he said.I ran to get him a drink.I came back and found the captain on the floor.His eyes were closed.Our doctor, Dr Livesey, came and looked at the old captain.'He's very ill,'said the doctor.The captain opened his eyes and looked at the doctor.'Where's Black Dog?'he asked.'There's no Black Dog here,' said the doctor.'Now, Billy Bones,you must...''Billy Bones?' said the captain. 'My name's not Billy Bones.''Oh?' said the doctor. 'Oh, yes. It's the name of a famous pirate.'We put the old captain in his bed.'He must stay in his bed for a week,' said the doctor. 'He's very ill.'At twelve o'clock I went to see the captain in his room.'What did the doctor say?'he asked.You must stay in bed for a week,' I told him.'Too late!' he said.'You remember Black Dog. He's a bad man, but there are worse men than Black Dog. They want my old box. You must look out for sailors. You must look out for Flint's men.'Then the captain closed his eyes.But I didn't lookout for sailors, because my father died that night.I was too sad to think about the captain.

This time I'm talking to Alexandra Livesey from Clockwise, a company specialising in transforming historical buildings into flexible workspaces. Alexandra discusses Clockwise's rapid growth from 3 to 16 buildings (and counting) across four countries in just a few years. She emphasises the importance of understanding and respecting the local community and heritage of each building, and shares insights on incorporating hospitality experience into the real estate sector, the importance of transparency in business, and the utilisation of the metaverse for virtual meetings.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Clockwise focuses on creating flexible workspaces that honour the history and community of each building they operate in. Clockwise's approach to building out spaces involves incorporating the local community's heritage and values, allowing for individuality and creativity among its members. Clockwise leverages transparency, scenario planning, and a strong team to drive success in the flexible workspace industry. The use of the Metaverse by Clockwise showcases innovation in connecting geographically dispersed members and enhancing emotional connections in virtual meetings. Alexandra emphasises the importance of aligning personal brand values with business ventures to ensure long-term success and growth. BEST MOMENTS "I think every building has a purpose... So what works in Exeter doesn't work in Glasgow or in Antwerp or Brussels."  "I think it will become more and more ingrained in what we do... this new generation is growing up intuitively using not only the real world, but also this virtual world."  "You always need to know what's the worst case and how you're going to deal with it."  "The thing about the metaverse is you actually have the ability to connect better because you're not only seeing the face...

How do you hear God's voice? Answering that question can be of the biggest frustrations, for both individuals and as parish leadership teams. Cath Livesey is the author of a book entitled Holy Disruption. In this episode, we're going to talk about growing your parish's prophetic calling, & the importance of the prophetic charism in churches. The book of Ephesians reminds us that Jesus gave us apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds & teachers for the building of the kingdom of God. Because the prophetic charism is often misunderstood, it remains unaccessible for many leaders. It's important to understand that all these roles are rooted in one another and work together to form a cohesive whole! Prayerful discernment is key in discerning how best to grow your prophetic calling at your parish or other ministry setting. Join Ron & Cath Livesey as we explore how to grow your prophetic calling, and why it matters so much for building up God's kingdom on earth.

With the people of London basking in some of the best weather we've seen this year Elis and John raised the temperature even more with some red hot broadcasting that certainly left Producer Dave sweating at times. But like a perfectly balanced see-saw they were able to level out the sweltering heat with some of the coolest anecdotes out there (most notably one involving Elis playing Nirvana on an electric guitar). As well as all the usual fun Elis shares a scripted intro that can almost be classed as a one-liner, John offers an apology to the listeners of 5 Live and Producer Dave dons his mortar board for a Key Stage 2 themed Made Up Game.
