I am thrilled to share that I will be taking part in The Speed Project (TSP) LALV in March 2024. 🎉🙌🏾 💥You know that I am always up for an adventure and being placed in spaces to learn. 🏃🏾♀️I am super delighted to embark in this venture with five other PHENOMENAL women who also relish doing this type of challenge and made it through the application process (celebration hands up emoji). As a result we have come together for this endurance race and created a sisterhood called LDN Sole Sisters. 📣What is TSP? A bit of background, TSP is a 340 mile race (if you’re lucky and don’t get lost) from Santa Monica Boulevard, LA to Las Vegas running across the desert for 2 days. 📣Who are LDN Sole Sisters? We are a group of 6 FABULOUS women ranging between the ages of 40 and 50 and we all enjoy making our bodies move! We want to show and celebrate that being active and adventurous doesn’t stop just because you reach a at a certain age. 📣Why are we doing it? We all have our own unique personal reasons for wanting to do this madness. Ultimately, We want to be the change we want to see! There aren’t too many folks that look, and sound like our team in these spaces. We know the systemic challenges faced by Black women in this space, which are rooted in historical disparities and societal prejudices. These challenges include limited representation, unequal access to resources and opportunities, as well as stereotypes that may hinder participation. We want to challenge and change this - collectively that is our mission. 📣 How it’s going? The training plans have begun in earnest, and I am under no illusion as to how hard this is going to be! This will demand a lot from my body, mind, and soul! Plus juggling life with epic training commitments, BUT as a crew we’ve got our sights firmly fixed on our goal = 340 miles, 6 Women, 2 Days 😅 📣 So, what happens once we’ve done it? Sure, that is great and good for us but what does that mean? Does it change anything? Well, there’s certainly a lot to be said for being “seen” as a way of inspiring others, but we plan to make it a reality for another team from an underrepresented group. We’ll assist them in their quest to take part in the next race / challenge in the following year. We want to pay it forward – make that on going. 📣We need your help ⭐️To make this happen we need support and have started a fundrsiser ➡️ : https://gofund.me/fc3a4ef7 ⭐️We welcome donations from those in a position to do so ⭐️Please share this post to increase visibility of the post. is also a great help. ⭐️If you represent a brand or corporate that is interested in sponsorship of our team, please reach out to me directly via dm or by email Big Love Team LDN SS x P.S.
