In a push towards a clean energy revolution, the Andrews Labor Government has made some major announcements but there are still a few kinks to be ironed out.
i wanted to give everything i had and to know that i d left it all out on the field. the track was lined with people cheering and whooping. the banner is out across the track which says world marathon challenge finish, you know, 2023. and it was huge. it was a mixture of relief, joy. cheering for me, i was so scared of failing this challenge because it was something i d never done before i d never done a single marathon, let alone seven. so, if there is another version of me in hospital right now who s just had whatever it is that s changed their life, hopefully i can show them that injury and disability doesn t stop ambition, it doesn t stop having aspiration, it doesn t stop you from dreaming big when you have a spinal cord injury. life doesn t stop when something doesn t go to plan and changes your life. congratulations to darren edwards there. now, next up, we re in new york to mark the 170th anniversary of one of the world s most
