I’ve just joined Twitter again for the first time in years. Anything much happening around here? (I was coaxed into coming back to follow the Barkley Marathons #bm100!!)
Only ten days left until my crowdfunder is over 😬😬😬 I cant wait to get my kids book published but I just need a little help to get to the end. https://t.co/TBSsdXfOrn #ultrarunning#running#runner#runningstory#africa
Wahoooo! I’ve reached 38% of my target. Still a long way to go and only two weeks left. I need to reach 44% to ensure that I can get my kids book complete. Please consider a small donation if you can 💛 https://t.co/TBSsdXfOrn #runner#crowdfund#africa#inspirekids
Wowsers! After 36 hours of my crowdfunder being live, I’ve already reached 10%. Honestly never expected that so soon. So happy!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 https://t.co/TBSsdXfOrn If you’ve not already, please check it out 🙌🙌
Did I tell you I’ve written a book?
I finished it about a year ago but have struggled to get the time to complete the illustrations. So now I’m asking for support. This book will give so much to young kids. Seeing a real life adventure story come to life! Launching on Friday 🤩
If you’ve ever run a marathon you know it’s hard 🏃🏽♀️
If you’ve ever run a marathon across a desert you know it’s REALLY hard 🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️

On Friday my crowdfunding campaign will begin 🥳🥳 My book is all about dreaming big and continuing through the hard times which is exactly what I am doing with this project. I’d love all the support I can get 🥰 #running#Africa#elephants#illustrator
Here’s a little sneak peak at the first couple of pages of my book. This is a very rough mock-up to get an idea of layout. I can’t wait to get stuck in to this!!! #thisgirlcan#adventurebook#africarun
Next week I’m launching a crowdfunding campaign to get my children’s book illustrated. It’s so important to show our little ones that they can dream and they can achieve. This is going to be epic!!! 🤩 #adventure#running
I’ve not been on twitter for over 6mths 😵 but I’ll be doing a live FB chat this evening to update on all that’s been happening. More leg news, art news, lockdown etc etc 🙌🙌🙌 20:30 NZ time #lockdown#COVID19
Weekend plans inspired by American Novelist Jack Kerouac “Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain”🏔
Just so you know, our Fantastic Female Adventurers web orders are now sent out as they are ordered, ahead of official publication 5th October. As are any school orders. Independent bookshops also welcome to order them. https://t.co/qb0p5Nrg6Z
Out in early October, Lily Dyu’s (@noisycrow) beautiful children’s book 'Fantastic Female Adventurers' features tales from 14 women who've explored the world, including our very own Beth French. We adore @chellie_carroll's illustration of Beth’s swim across the Molokai Channel.
