"I don’t earn my living through sport. My work supports my family and my life. Racing is something I choose because I enjoy it."

“I know eventually my body is going to say no. Until then, I want to keep doing this.”

“I think I’m only here because of the community surrounding me, but I have come to enjoy it on my own. That is kind of my whole thing. I just want to enjoy what I do.”

“Doing this together is about bonding and my kids’ futures. It’s about giving them something outside, something active, something they can carry with them.”

“Although you want to inspire your children, you also don’t want them to think that winning is everything.”

“Being outside makes me feel calmer. When I go out running, I just sit in my thoughts, go over everything that happened in the day, and it feels more relaxing.”

“I do it because I enjoy it, and I love the off-road because of the peace of mind it gives me.”

“The magic of trail running is that you’re out there for the adventure.”

“Mum makes me think a lot about strength, and about how we keep going.”

“I think that this joy I feel, that I’m having a good time and that I’m well, I would like to see that in the people around me too.”
