What a day. ❤️

The inaugural Geelong Marathon was a special one for many reasons. I got to run with Kym for the first time since we completed the New York Marathon together in 2015. Kym is the reason I run, so sharing another marathon together after all these years was such an honour.

Today brought some seriously tough conditions, but we got there in the end! 🏃‍♀️💪 And for the very first time, I had my kids waiting for me at the finish line — a moment I will never forget.

The community spirit has been incredible, and running alongside so many dedicated and passionate runners made the experience even more special.

And my support crew… absolutely out of this world. From @scotty_orchard making the trip up from Melbourne, to @evieivyover and @sezmckeegan , and to my incredible Australian family. You all made today beyond special. ❤️

Thank you to @theinjuryclinic for getting me through 3 marathons in just over 12 months 🙌.

A huge congratulations to @leetroop73 and the entire team behind the @geelongrunningfestival Geelong. What an incredible first-class event. You should be so proud! 👏🏃‍♀️ by @steph.runstheworld

Goal achieved 💚

I knew this was an ambitious goal, and I honestly didn’t know if I would get there, but this has shown me just how many incredible people I have in my life.

I’m so grateful for every single person who supported, donated, shared, and encouraged me along the way. And beyond that, for all the amazing humans I’ve had the chance to meet through this journey.

Raising these funds for @1wsfoundation, a cause that stands for resilience, connection, and strength through adversity, makes this incredibly meaningful.

Thank you for being part of this. I couldn’t have done it without you. by @steph.runstheworld

What a journey 💛💙

This was without a doubt my toughest marathon prep and the hardest course I’ve ever taken on.

2 x codeine tablets later and to be honest… any other race I would have deferred. But not Boston. The holy grail for a reason.

The crowds were unreal. The most genuine support I’ve ever experienced, and I met some incredibly inspiring people along the way.

This marathon didn’t go to plan, and the goal had to shift. It became about finishing — and I’m so proud I found a way to get it done.

To everyone who supported me through donations, messages, and cheerleading…THANK YOU. Every bit carried me, and supported the important work @1wsfoundation do 💚.

To the @theinjuryclinic, @sleepycoop @bencalnin.coaching — I wouldn’t have made that start line without you.

And @thewrathofdaniel … seeing you at mile 17 meant everything. You have been my rock throughout the entire journey 🫶 ILD.

Congratulations to all the runners! What an accomplishment!

Boston, I will never forget!

Tomorrow, I get to run the Boston Marathon.

But before a single step is taken, I just need to say this… I could never have gotten here alone.

The support, the messages, the encouragement, the donations, every single bit of it has carried me through this journey. Especially during the moments that felt uncertain, when things didn’t go to plan, and when I had to dig a little deeper than expected.

This experience has already meant so much to me, long before the start line.

I’m proud to be running for Team @1wsfoundation and to be part of something that represents resilience, unity, and strength.

To everyone who has been part of this with me…THANK YOU. I feel it, I carry it, and I certainly don’t take any of it for granted.

Tomorrow, I run with all of you in my heart (and will be an emotional mess afterwards…I warned you).

Boston, let’s go. 💛💙

Seeing the Boston Marathon bombing sites for the first time tonight hit hard.

Despite the weight of it all, there’s also a quiet strength here. The way this city has honoured the lives lost is beautiful, not just in what you see, but in what you feel standing here.

It’s a reminder that even in the darkest moments, people choose connection, strength, and compassion.

Meeting Dave (soon in person) and learning more about @1wsfoundation has been one of the most meaningful parts of this journey. It’s a living example that good can come from tragedy, that community can rise, support, and carry each other forward.

This place holds so much history, heartbreak, and resilience… and I feel really grateful to be here.

Today’s my birthday… and I’m celebrating it a little differently this year ✨

We’ve officially hit $16,000 AUD (!!) and I could not be more grateful. The support, the messages, the donations — it’s meant so much.

This Boston Marathon journey hasn’t gone to plan. There’s been setbacks, plenty of unknowns, and a lot of perspective along the way… but why I’m doing this has never changed.

And now we are SO close to that final goal.

So here’s my birthday wish:
If you’ve been following along, thinking about donating, or just quietly supporting — I’d love your help to get us over the line 👀

Every contribution, no matter the size, genuinely makes a difference.

I’ll be taking all of this with me to the start line on Monday — the best kind of birthday carry-on.

Let’s finish this together 💚

Final gym session: DONE ✅

A few weeks ago, this wasn’t how I pictured the final lead-in to Boston Marathon… but here we are.

A couple of bike sessions, some strength work, and just doing everything I can to get to that start line in the best shape possible. It hasn’t been perfect, it hasn’t been easy — but it’s happening.

Recovery’s tracking really well, and my body feels better than it has in over six weeks.

Every marathon journey looks different, and this one has already taught me so much…perspective, patience, and just how much it all means beyond race day.

Now we’re in the final stretch.

Race day is Monday. 💚

We are SO close to hitting our $20K fundraising goal, and I would love one final push to get us there. Every single donation, message, and bit of support has carried me through more than you know.

If you’ve been thinking about donating, this is your moment 🙏

Let’s do this. Boston, I’m ready for you.

First run in 3 weeks… testing the waters 👀

It wasn’t the outcome I was hoping for, but I got to share it with my best little buddy, Archie, and honestly… that put everything into perspective. Running alongside him for the first time was something very special 🥹

Boston is going to look a little different to what I imagined… but I know it’s still going to be something pretty special.

7 days to go.

We’re so close to hitting that $20k fundraising milestone… and if you’ve been thinking about supporting the journey and the incredible work that @1wsfoundation do — now’s the moment 💚

Training has looked VERY different these past two weeks…
Lots of skipping, bike riding and strengthening gym work instead of pounding the pavement.

Also — since when is bike riding this hard?! 😅

Grateful for all the continued support and encouragement along the way. Getting SO close now! by @steph.runstheworld
