“Really enjoyed the online talk, very informative and thought provoking.”
I have recently started running and although I am still new to it, I have thought about the possibility of me attending marathons in the distant future. Right now, it is only an idea that I could easily squash. But hearing Tori talk about when her monumental journey started with an idea that she initially did try to squash has given me further hope that I may one day run a marathon. It’s still early days, but then it was once ‘early days’ for Tori too.
The speaker Tori James was truly inspiring and captivating. Her insights left a lasting impression on me, and I left the session feeling highly motivated. While I may not be scaling Mount Everest anytime soon, her words have renewed my determination to reach the base camp someday. Overall, it was an enriching experience that has left me feeling enthusiastic and energized!
