ABOUT CHRIS DIXON – Chris is a middle distance runner that loves cycling and grew up swimming and surfing. But when he discovered Adventure Racing (far too late in life) he truely found his sport.
He’s very passionate about the outdoors so when he’s not working or training, he can be found trekking with his family somewhere a very long way from a mobile signal.
As a managing director of Wild&Co. Chris brings over 25 years experience in business in the advertising, events and not-for-profit sectors in Australia and Asia. He has contributed to the development of local, national and international events and brands, in markets throughout the Asia Pacific region.
