Footprints

Footprints follows the 2017 Indigenous Marathon Project over the course of 6 months as they prepare for the New York City Marathon. Established by Australian world champion marathon runner, Rob de Castella, in 2010, the Indigenous Marathon Project selects 12 young indigenous men and women and provides these future leaders with training and qualifications in health and fitness while pushing their physical and mental boundaries to the limit to achieve a sense of purpose and pride, and enabling them to lead, inspire and encourage change within indigenous communities.

With a background in Marketing and Communications, Jennifer Minns has always loved the art of writing and story telling. In 2015 she decided to pursue her love of photography and began full time study at the Canberra Institute of Technology. In her first year she won the inaugural award for High Achievement and Commitment in the Diploma of Photo Imaging, and upon graduation was awarded a 2017 Artist Residency with Photo Access. With a keen interest in travel and people, she now uses this visual medium to share her stories.
