Crossing the finish line after my first half marathon felt unreal. I was exhausted, emotional, and so overwhelmed with pride. It wasn’t just physical — it was mental too, pushing through every doubt and not giving up.

I feel strong, accomplished, and honestly a bit emotional knowing I’ve achieved something I never thought I could. I did this for myself, but also for my children — they are my reason for everything, and that kept me going when it got hard.

 I’m also so grateful for the monies raised which honestly means the world to me. The support has been incredible,  I can’t thank everyone enough for the generosity and encouragement.

 A moment I’ll never forget ❤️
