MOTHER DAUGHTER HIGH TEA

BRITTON Community Liaison Officer

OnSunday 11 June, St Peters mothers, daughters, grandmothers, aunts and friends all came together to enjoy an elegant afternoon at Victoria Park over High Tea. Our inspirational speaker was ultra marathon runner, lawyer and mum Nicole Jukes who is the first Australian female to win a backyard ultra worldwide. For those not familiar with backyard ultras, competitors must consecutively run the distance of 6.7km in less than one hour. The race is over when only one runner remains to complete a lap. Nicole’s message for our young ladies was that the best goals are those that you cannot conceive of achieving right now because they will push you to stretch yourself and grow.

She is also a passionate advocate for surrounding yourself with the best possible squad and that it's okay to let toxic people go. In life, sport, friendship, school and work, the only person able to truly obstruct your motivation is you, so be your own biggest supporter!
