Hi friends! As many of you know, I live with fibromyalgia, a lifelong condition that brings daily pain, fatigue, and a lot of unpredictability. Because of that, exercise can be challenging… but it’s also something I genuinely enjoy and want to keep doing.

This year, I will be taking on a new (slightly insane) challenge to raise awareness of chronic pain and to support others like me by fundraising for Pain Concern. I’ll be following a “fibro-friendly” 18 week training plan which is slower, longer, and much gentler than a standard plan. It’s designed to make space for flare-ups and fatigue, and hopefully will show the realities of living with this condition and the extra effort it takes to stay active. I am mindful, however, that everyone experiences fibromyalgia differently and that many would not be able to attempt such a challenge.

A fun fact: I will have Jacob running with me as my pacer and encourager!!

I would love and appreciate support through donations at the link below. Christian friends, I would also appreciate lots of prayer as I seek to care for my body whilst also pushing it to its limits!
