I’m excited to announce that I’ll be racing in the legendary Marathon des Sables this April! 🏜️ This has been a dream of mine for the last two years, ever since I saw Amy Palmiero-Winters on Human Playground. Amy, a world-record holder and a highly decorated athlete, has inspired me beyond words. She’s won countless awards, including an ESPY award for Best Female Athlete with a Disability, and has set records in both ultra-endurance races and marathons. Her determination to push past limits motivates me every day, and I’m excited she’ll be racing with me, alongside Ilaria Giansanti-Borden.
This race is not for the weak. It takes over seven 🔥days in the Sahara Desert, covering 150 miles. We’ll be facing extreme challenges, including daytime temperatures reaching 135°F and freezing nights, all while carrying everything we need on our backs: food, gear, and supplies. We’ll also have to go through sandstorms and rugged terrain, testing our physical and mental endurance. Does it sound fun yet 🥴😂
Last year, I had a sponsor lined up but unfortunately I couldn’t participate. If any sponsors are still interested this year, I’d love to connect!
