    What a buzz. Finished my first ever half marathon. Will definitely be doing another one. I went in to today with an injured knee and after the first 10.5 kms it was excruciating. To the point where I thought I might pass out but I was determined to finish for Conor and for Murray and Joy.

    It was so lovely to bump into Joy before the race as she was doing it too.

    So proud that I crossed the finish line.

    2 hours 18 mins. Think it will be a trip to the doctors and physio tomorrow.

    Thank you to Mitchell for all the great photos and videos. You are truly amazing for all the support and encouragement you have given me as well as my family there to see me cross the finish line.

    Thank you to everyone for all of the generous donations and support. There were a few tears on such an emotional day.

  • One week until race day

      11 October 2020

    One week to go until I run my first half marathon. I ran 16 and half Kilometres this morning and feeling ready to go.

    Thank you for all of the lovely donations and support. It means a lot. I feel so honoured to be able to do this for Conor and to be able to give back to Murray and Joy from the Waitakere baby coffin club.
