    And I still got all my teeth!

    This was certainly an experience of a life time to tick of my bucket list!

    What an 8 weeks it has been!

    I’m satisfyingly knackered and love sleeping past 4.45am again.

    I can not thank all supporters and donations enough! I feel SO GRATEFUL!!

    Having been so close to pulling out in the last 3 weeks of training, I am so overwhelmed with winning and all the wonderful reactions I've received.

    Now time to fully recover from head cold, chest cold and exhausted body. Up and onwards to my next challenge... whatever that may be ;-)

    Wishing you all a gorgeous week!

    Arohanui, T REX

  • Last training done! Next up: The boxing ring!

      29 June 2022

    Hi everyone!

    It is getting real! This morning was our last team training and after our team meeting I actually felt excitement pulsing through me.

    Friday night we will get a medical check up and I'll learn who my opponent is, have a stare down and find out what time I am fighting in the ring on Saturday night.

    I'm slowly starting to believe that I am ready for this experience. The main thing I've learned is to RELAX! During my first sparring session I tensed up so much it ended with a panic attack..

    What a gift to learn to relax in most heightened moments of life. I will take that with me as the greatest lesson of all. Relaxing means strength, power, control and certainly more air to breathe.

    Thank you all so much for your donations! I am so very very grateful!

    And to you who are coming to watch me: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING THERE!!

    Arohanui and a punch,

    T-REX xx

    Hi everyone!

    Less than 2 weeks to go! Boxing night will be on the 2nd of July at the ABA. I am certainly getting nervous.

    In the past 2 weeks I've not been able to go to the trainings much due to circumstances, but today I got back into it and have gained a new sense excitement and thrill for this once in my lifetime event.

    I want thank you all so much for your donations, they've given me hope and courage to do this and energy to carry on till the end. So THANK YOU!

    If you want to see me fight, here is a link to tickets to the event:

    Of course I will let you all know how it goes even if you can't be here.

    Big hugs and so much love, T xx

    p.s Tree planting has been really!!
