Donate NowWho?
Hi, for those who don’t know me, I’m Sonja. Wife, mum, daughter, friend, refractory Hodgkins Lymphoma survivor and Matched Unrelated Donor (MUD) stem cell (bone marrow) recipient and now the founder of MUDBlood Running.
What?
MUDBlood Running is designed as a fun way to brand my training for the World Transplant Games. My goal is compete in the 5km running event at the Games in the UK in Aug 2019.
Why?
Following cancer treatment, I was left with PTSD and various chronic health conditions. Now, with a beautiful active daughter as motivation, and with some time and space behind me, this is an opportunity to test myself. To prove that after everything, we can all achieve something huge.
How?
I will undergo a lot of training under the guidance of some of Perth’s top trainers: Strength, mobility, run technique , recovery, nutrition. To help with the costs of training, I have partnered with Australian Sports Foundation, to be able to raise funds via tax deductible donations.
