Join Me on a Journey of Fun, Fitness, and Inclusion!
Having completed the London and New York City marathons, I'm excited to approach the finish line of the Tokyo Marathon (on March 1st). With three more world major marathons ahead—Chicago, Boston, and Berlin — my journey is far from over!
Yes, marathons can be tough (some might even say madness), but I’m taking things up a notch by completing them in a wheelchair — dressed as a squirrel, no less! Why? Because I believe in spreading joy through the unexpected. When people see a racing wheelchair athlete, in a squirrel suit, it brings a smile, and sparks conversations about inclusion and fitness.
My mission is to inspire others to embrace fitness at any level. By showcasing fun in movement and encouraging everyone to get involved, I hope to motivate you to chase your own goals, however big or small.
Every race is more than just a physical challenge; it’s an opportunity to connect with incredible individuals, to share our stories, and to celebrate our progress together. Life is about moving forward, not just reaching a destination. Let's progress together—one marathon at a time!
I also love sharing my journey through speaking engagements. If you believe my story could resonate with your group, school, or team, please reach out!
Support My Journey! Your contributions will help fuel my races and enable me to continue spreading positivity and inclusiveness in the fitness community. Together, we can inspire smiles and make a difference!
Use of funds
All funds raised will go towards my challenge. Flights are about $1500 for each event, approx $3500 for 4nights accommodation at each event, and so on... All funds help, directly towards the events themselves, or towards protein powder, electrolytes, etc
