On November 10, 2024 I’ll be running the Manchester City Marathon to support in support of my sister, Grace and all other special athletes to promote inclusion and empower our community. My older sister Grace is significantly impacting my life and those around her each day, she continues to change my outlook on life. She is fearless, hard working, and an aficionado of life. Special olympics has been a passion for Grace ever since I can remember, participating in gymnastics and skiing. She started because she wanted to get metals like me and our brother, Callum. Little did we know she would bring home more metals than both of us combined. Grace finally had a sense of community, pride, and boundless achievements. I will be running this race for my biggest inspiration, Grace and all others who continue to breakdown barriers daily. Regardless of donations, I want to remind you can change someone's life by a simple smile and conversation. Strength lies in differences, not similarities.
