In her latest challenge, Lomas continued throughout the day and night without sleep to walk the race in Portsmouth with the aid of the suit and pair of crutches.

She was met with cheers and applause as she crossed the line, having posted regular updates on Twitter as she battled wind and rain.

Lomas said the fact that this was her first long-distance race without stopping meant “it was a little bit unknown” whether she could finish, and added that she was “really grateful to everyone that supported me... I had a few tears.”

At the halfway stage, Lomas remained in high spirits and posted video of herself singing Bon Jovi’s Livin’ on a Prayer. And she showed the exhausting effects of the race with a mile to go when she tweeted: “Help me get to the last mile as I’m so tired.”

Her effort has so far raised more than ￡4,000 for the Nicholls Spinal Injury Foundation. After collecting her award, she said, “My accident was 10 years ago in May. When I think back to that first year or two I would have loved for someone to tell me what the future had in store—back then, everything felt so bleak with so many dark days. I forced myself to take small opportunities and they have led on to bigger things. It has taken a lot of small little steps to get here.”

I enjoy spend Sundays in a local forest park. I go there at the least twice a month because every visit is one-of-a-kind. The most attractive part of the visits are the unpredictability. Each time I have different experiences as if there were a director which designed an amazed performance for me. The actors are the energetic lives lived in the forest. I am a wildlife lover and particular love observing a variety birds. Now, even I am in senior high school, with lots of school tasks, I still took time to breathe the clean air in the forest on my spare time. The forest park is my favorite and it is a place with endless pleasure.
