Great to be part of the #ProjectRugby at home session last night talking about life in lockdown, the challenges of training with a disability and why rugby/wheelchair rugby is so beneficial and important!

Vaccinated 🎉 Science really is incredible! It’s been a stressful and worrying year but there is finally some light at the end of the tunnel 😊 #vaccination #livingthedream

#ChooseToChallenge Everyday I challenge what people expect me to do because of my gender or disability & I’ll never stop. Thanks to strong females before me I have been given a platform to achieve so much but stereotypes still exist and we must continue to challenge this #IWD2021

Being an athlete is his full time job, part of that job is to comply with AD rules. Missing tests, especially 3, shows a disregard for the sport. Yes, he’ll miss Tokyo but now he can defend his other titles. Sport needs to be fair, for fans and athletes. bbc.co.uk/sport/athletic…

Great to get (almost all of) the team together to discuss how The Harlequins Foundation is going to make a real difference to people's lives - first time in 15 months we were all together...might have even brought a tear to the eye #COYQ #BuildingBrighterFutures #Harlequins

First wheelchair race yesterday at the Vitality Westminster Mile in Hatfield! Tough course but happy to cross the line first after 2 small crashes. Slightly disappointed in my time of 6:23 but so motivated to improve! #WheelchairRacing #Disability #Paralympics #ImpossibleToIgnore

London Marathon 2021 - a massive PB 3:02:43 😱🎉 I was concerned the experience wouldn’t live up to the amazing atmosphere of 2019 but it was incredible. I managed a 4:00:02 last time so absolutely blown away with the progress! Next up Manchester next week 😊 #LondonMarathon

A brilliant day yesterday introducing wheelchair rugby (or bumper cars as they coined it) to some very excited young people. Lots of fun, laughter and enjoyment. Hopefully inspiring the next generation of Great Britain Wheelchair Rugby players.Thank you Fulham FC Foundation for organising a great day!

2 years later than planned, it finally happened Comrades Marathon FINISHER 🎉 Everything was big: the crowd, the noise and of course the hills! Wasn’t sure what to expect but over the moon to finish the 90km in 8:35:41 well within the 12 hour cutoff! #ComradesMarathon

My 100th different parkrun UK event this morning at Higginson parkrun, Marlow! From flat tarmac paths to some very hilly off road courses to some absolute mudfests. It’s been an incredible experience and looking forward to many more parkrun events! #loveparkrun #parkrun

The crowds at Kingsmead were incredible! So many emotions, doing Comrades Marathon once was a challenge and a dream come true, to do it again for a second time and get my Back-to-Back medal is honestly a privilege! #ComradesMarathon #Comrades2023
