She has been noted for what Marie Claire magazine called her "spectacular career transformation" from first time amateur marathoner in 2019 to professional runner in 2022, after getting more seriously into the sport during the UK's Covid lockdown. In 2019 she completed her first marathon in 4 hours 34 minutes, and by 2022 had improved that time by two hours.[4]
