My Story…
🏃♀️ Turning 40 & Running 5K – What Could Go Wrong? 🤣
Hey everyone! This year, I’m celebrating my 40th birthday (May 30th 🎉) in the most unexpected way—by running my first-ever 5K at the Shoppers Drug Mart Run for Women in Oakville on May 24th!
Yes, you read that right! The same girl who considers a shopping marathon an Olympic sport is now lacing up for an actual run. 🏃♀️💨
Why am I doing this?
To challenge myself (because apparently, turning 40 isn’t challenge enough 😆).
To support a great cause—women’s mental health!
To prove I can do it (and survive to tell the tale).
If you want to cheer me on, send words of encouragement, or place bets on whether I’ll crawl across the finish line, I’d love the support! 💖
Wish me luck—I'll need it! 😅
