I DID IT… and I’m still walking (just about)! 😅
A massive thank you to everyone who donated and supported my marathon for charity, you honestly got me round every single mile, especially the ones where I questioned all my life choices! Your generosity kept me going when my legs definitely didn’t want to.
What an incredible day, hard, emotional, and at times slightly insane—but crossing that finish line felt amazing 🎉 I’m so proud to have done it, and even prouder that it was all for such an amazing cause.
Thank you for the cheers, messages, donations, and belief, you are all legends 👊🏽
See you all soon ######
