Awesome stuff Timmy. Congrats on the appointment and looking forward to joining you for a few kms during Chapter 3.

Regards to feedback, you write really well mate and this was one of the most clear and concise posts I've read in a long time. Very easy to read and dig deeper to more info (via the links) without being bombarded by too many words. Well done!

Enjoying reading back through your posts and previous chapters Tim. You have cleverly harnessed together the powerful combination of running and writing to set your own goals but to drive a higher purpose. Looking forward to joining you on the journey via writing 4 resilience.

Thank you Charley for your kind words and wonderful encouragement!

I have found the running goals to be a surprising catalyst to conversation about rare diseases. People sometimes ask why I'm running or how I got into running and I can bring up the impacts of my rare disease candidly and people seem more open to conversation than they might be otherwise.

I'm looking forward to Chapter 3, although I have many kilometres to catch up on haha!

You’ll make a difference to people that need it. You already have!

With regards to your newsletter, I agree with Benny and I would also add keep following your gut and backing your judgment, the iterations and improvements will come over time.

Very high starting point though!
