As requested by all my fans #blessed, here is my official 30 Before 30 list.
I started pulling together this list together around 3 years ago, back when completing a 5K seemed absurd let alone completing a marathon!
Some of these ‘goals’ are cliché, some are slightly ridiculous (no. 10 – please don’t judge. I still don’t think I have completed this, as I did have a fair amount of assistance.)
Apologies for the one that is marked as CONFIDENTIAL, I am not trying to be mysterious/really irritating! And no, it’s not vulgar/inappropriate/gross.
