My daughter is running in the Sydney Marathon this Sunday for premature babies. Our grandson was born at just 25 weeks and was in intensive care for 3 months so it was this that inspired her.

She was never really into running until she went to live in Australia and never thought she could run well but she has trained hard for this and is definitely now a runner.

I am so proud of her, the thought of running for 4 or more hours blows my mind.

So whenever I am finding it tough on a 5 or 10k I always think of her and it motivates me so much.

If we work hard and believe in ourselves there is nothing we can’t achieve.

Happy Running all ❤️

Be inspired, Believe.

What a wonderful post, and wow, what an inspiration your daughter is RosesAreRed. ❤️

I hope you will report back to let us know how she got on. She’s running for a great cause, and I’m sure that’ll spur her on if the going gets tough. 💪

Good luck to her!

Our little one was 6 weeks early, so I know just where this is coming from. ❤️
