A post shared by Francesca Falzon (@franfalzon)

‘Pain, coughing, a lot of motivational speeches from Luk and incredible supporters throughout with a big surprise from Soph… but 42.2km later, elite runners and i have the same medal.’

Francesca thanked everyone who supported, donated and messaged, making this entire journey possible from beginning to end.

This is not the first time Francesca has completed such a fantastic feat – having run the LifeStar Malta Half Marathon earlier this year.

Back then she did 21.1km with what she described as ‘lungs that don’t make it easy.’ And now she’s going the full 42.2km!

Well done Fran!
