My Story

This is how sport not only saved my life but transformed it.

As I am approaching the last few kilometres of the Valencia Marathon, overwhelmed with emotion as the realisation of achieving my goal of running a 2:35 Marathon crosses my mind, i can’t help but think back to 2011 when I was lying in my hospital bed gasping for air , afraid that this illness will take my life.

Aspire to Inspire

Sports has opened many doors for me, I have been blessed with this talent and my gift back would be to use any opportunity to help others experience the benefits of sport and to give back to the community in which ever way I can. I am active in projects that make a difference in the lives of people, whether it be as a mentor, coaching , inspirational talks, or simply engaging with young athletes.

Partners

Grateful to my partners who believe and support me through my ups and downs. Each one has contributed significantly to my success in running and make it possible for me to be at my best and strive for excellence.
