Despite challenges, we had extensive planning for the run, starting a year before training began, which included careful sequencing of changes to minimize risks.

After my first 100-mile race, I realized I had been underachieving my entire life, and that experience taught me what is possible.

I started to enjoy the process of pushing my limits and seeing what the human mind is capable of during my training.

The treatment plan involved a year of intensive chemotherapy followed by three years of less intense treatment, which was a challenging journey for me.

When I had 5 kilometers to go, I realized I could do it, and crossing the finish line filled me with happiness because I achieved something historic.

This challenge taught me that when you decide to pursue something, you can achieve it, reinforcing that nothing is impossible if you plan and prepare well. Teamwork is essential; it's about a group of people who trust each other and work towards a common goal, just like in sailing where 120 people collaborate to support one individual in winning a challenge.

I run every day for a minimum of 12 miles, and I do it fasted, which sets the tone for my day.

After my work block, I engage in physical training, alternating between resistance and endurance workouts on different days.

During the training run, we made changes that had a positive impact, sometimes better than anticipated, which was an exciting moment for the team.
