Story

Since coming back to work from maternity leave just over 18 months ago I think I’m starting to see how everything can make sense again…maybe. 


Being a first time mum in a pandemic was most certainly the biggest curve ball I’ve ever been thrown..coming back to work 14 months later was the second. 


I had to learn how to manage my new life and priorities on the job (both a parenting and work) and I definitely lost myself along the way. 


Since the beginning of 2023, whilst I don’t have the perfect balance - I have finally managed to find some time to properly prioritise myself again both mentally and physically.  


Over the years I have heard about the GroceryAid cycle challenges and they’ve gone in one ear and out of the other - this year, however, I listened. 


If I can overcome the challenges that the last 3 years have thrown at me (and everyone else) - surely I can do this..right?


Cycling novice would be a polite description of my current ability. 


This cycle will mean a lot more to me than just the challenge of the 404k. Any support you can give me would be massively appreciated. 


To help encourage any donations - and to give you the raw reality of what it will take to undertake this challenge..I have set up a social media page..

For me, the girls and the mummies - let’s do this.
