Background
My journey into the realm of endurance sports began with Ironman, where I quickly realized that lugging bikes and wetsuits onto planes wasn't my idea of hassle-free travel. So, I decided to shift my focus to running, hoping for a hobby with fewer logistical challenges. Little did I know, running came with its own set of adventures! Since making that switch, I've taken on races of all shapes and sizes, from speedy 5ks to grueling 240-mile ultramarathons. And I'm not done pushing my limits just yet.
Best Race Memory
One of the standout moments in my racing career was becoming Scotland's inaugural Moab 240 mile ultramarathon finisher, all while raising funds for the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity. It was a journey of sheer determination and a testament to the power of endurance.
Favorite Distance
I thrive on the variety that the running world offers, embracing challenges across all distances. If you can dream up a race, chances are I've tackled it, or it's on my to-do list. And if it's not, let's make it happen!
Proudest Achievement:
Among my proudest accomplishments is my first ultramarathon finish at Cold Hawaii 80k. Don't let the name fool you; this wasn't the sunny Hawaii you might envision. Instead, it was a day of running along the windswept Danish coastline in classic Scandinavian weather. We charged ahead, battling relentless winds and navigating the shoreline in the pitch dark. Separating from the pack, I found solace and determination, ultimately crossing the marathon mark, a new milestone for me. The scenery along the way and the emotional final stretch made this race unforgettable. Plus, it boasts the most unique race medal: a rock from the beach, bearing the race details handwritten in pen – a tangible symbol of my extraordinary journey.
