I love being over 40 because it's the perfect balance of youth and wisdom. People often say I look 10 years younger, which is always a nice compliment, but what I really cherish is the experience and maturity I've gained. I feel more grounded, more confident, and I have a better sense of well-being. Plus, with all the people I've met and the social connections I've built over the years, life feels richer and more fulfilling.

I stay fabulous through my unwavering commitment to fitness and endurance sports, which have been integral to my lifestyle. As an ultra-marathon athlete, I understand the importance of maintaining both a strong physical and mental foundation. My journey in ultra-endurance events has shaped not only my body but also my mindset. Competing in races like the 4 Deserts and the World Championships required me to develop a rigorous training regimen that balances strength, stamina, and recovery.

If I were given $40,000, I would invest it primarily in enhancing my ultra-marathon training by acquiring advanced equipment and expanding my participation in more international competitions. This would allow me to further challenge myself, improve my performance, and achieve new personal records.
