Commonwealth Games Nomination Standard in the Marathon (2:13.39)
It would mean a great deal to be selected for Birmingham 2022. I finished 15th 4 years ago at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games, so to have a chance to improve on that result with the support of a home crowd really motivates me and gets me excited about next summer. To get the chance to race at a Commonwealth Games once was really special and was something I worked very hard for. To get the chance to do it again on home turf would be really special.
