    Hey Team! Firstly I want to thank you all for your support and your very generous donations! $750 is massive - thank you all SO much ❤️.

    On Saturday I completed The Taniwha. A huge goal which I feel so proud to have accomplished.

    I am stoked with the awareness I was able to generate for Type 1 Diabetes at the event. The MC was amazing and helped me bring attention to my cause with interviews and shout outs throughout the day. We talked about the challenges faced and the work that Diabetes NZ are doing to advocate for our community.

    I was approached by many people affected by Type 1 Diabetes, mostly the parents of children and young people managing life alongside the disease.

    Thank you also to the running community who were so supportive, I felt welcomed and safe during my run.

    Thank you again for your support - you are all amazing 🤩
