Melbourne Marathon 2026

Not the time I was gunning for, but a PB is a PB! 🥹✨

I was already suffering by the 25km mark.. way too early to be struggling, but that’s the marathon for you. No matter how many times you’ve done it, it’ll always find a way to humble you.

I thought seeing Eliud on the course would be the highlight of this race, but turns out, it was the crowd who showed up. 🥹💗 So, so grateful to everyone who cheered us on and offered lollies when my body couldn’t stomach another gel.

My first marathon in Australia, but definitely won’t be my last. 🇦🇺✨

Melb, you humbled me, surprised me, and gave me another story to tell. Time to move forward & dream onto the next one 🏃‍♀️
