I’ve never shared my full story, so here it is.
Don’t let barriers, stereotypes and adversity stop you from succeeding.
Use every chapter, experience and pain as a stepping stone for growth.
I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has supported my journey so far - those in my online community and those who’ve lifted me up every time I’ve fallen.
You know who you are 🤍
I can’t wait to take you all with me through my next chapter, I’m only just get to started🤍
Anything is possible with hard work, faith and self belief. My children will always be my inspiration not my limitation. On Sunday I carried that message over 21km, pushing my youngest daughter.
1 hour 49. That’s a 4 minute PB. It was one of the hardest things I’ve experienced. The last 6km was a battle with both the pace and my own thoughts, but we did it. We can do hard things. Even when they seem impossible.
Thank you to everyone who is apart of our journey and to all those who supported us on the day. None of this is possible without you.
And a special mention to @rawalex1 he ran the whole race with me. There was a point I turned to him and told him I couldn’t carry on, but he didn’t let me quit. Thank you for believing in me.

Soooo many questions about my skin recently, and honestly it’s genuinely the best it’s ever been right now (Allahumma barik) 🤍
So I wanted to share exactly what I’ve had done. This was a gifted treatment, but genuinely the results speak for themselves and I had absolutely no obligation to post this. I actually paid and booked my mum in because I was soo happy with my own results 🤍
@dermafixbeauty is a clinic with over 10 years of experience in the industry and they really focus on creating tailored treatment plans based on your individual skin concerns, goals and lifestyle. I had their 6-in-1 Skin Rehaul treatment and I was honestly so impressed by the difference after just one session.
Over the course of two hours, I had a bespoke facial, collagen induction therapy, a customised infusion of targeted serums and my personal favourite — the skin booster treatment.
The biggest thing for me is that they’re genuinely results-driven, and I think you can clearly see that in my skin. Shama was absolutely incredible throughout the whole process and this is definitely something I’ll be revisiting every 6 months or so to maintain the results 🤍

Just a little brain dump as I was getting changed at the @asics get the glow event today in London 🤍 obsessed with the fit and trainers, and loved the event.
The event really focused on the mental health benefits to exercise, which is soo important. Always grateful to be in these spaces

Announcement 🤍
On the 31st of May, I’ll be running the Manchester AJ Bell Half Marathon with Aya in the pram for the very last time.
This will be our third half marathon together, and honestly, each one has been so much more than just a race. They’ve become some of the most special memories of my life.
But now Aya is 3 years old, this chapter is coming to an end.
Pushing a pram for 13.1 miles has always represented something far bigger than running to me. It’s for every woman and every mum trying to chase her own goals and dreams whilst carrying the weight of everything else life demands from her. I’ve always wanted to be a visual reminder that you can do both — and that your children can grow up watching you fight for yourself too.
So for our final race together, it only feels right to go all in.
We’ll be chasing a PB and aiming to run sub 1:49 together. A huge challenge considering Aya is now several kilos heavier than the last time we did this… but I know we can do it.
As always, thank you for all the love and support you’ve shown us on this journey.
See you at the finish line, one last time 🤍

If you’ve been here a while you’ll now my core fitness background is martial arts. I was on team GB for taekwondo.
