People often wonder why I have chosen to run the marathon not once, but twice. The answer lies in my deep belief in the power of leading by example. It’s not enough to simply tell others about the importance of perseverance and dedication; I feel compelled to demonstrate these values in action.
Running a marathon is more than just a physical challenge; it symbolizes commitment, resilience, and the pursuit of goals. By undertaking this journey, I aim to inspire those around me, particularly the students I work with, to embrace their own challenges and strive for success.
In a world where words can often fall flat, I want my actions to resonate. Each mile I run serves as a reminder that with hard work and determination, anything is possible. My hope is that my journey will encourage others to push their boundaries and achieve their dreams, both in education and beyond.
