Loise ran the virtual London Marathon, participating in her first event three months after undergoing intensive radiotherapy for a medical condition. She ran a total of five times since the first virtual run, including returning in the 2023 London Marathon. Loise's running has been closely followed by her social media fans, who praised her determination and wheelchair-bound ---. She has become a face for mental health awareness... using her platform to defy societal expectations and promote self-acceptance.
Despite feeling ⁘pressure⁘ to get reconstructive surgery, Louise opted not to go for it explaining that she wanted to fight against social norms, and feel comfortable in her own skin. "I didn't feel the need to get reconstructive surgery," she explains. ⁘I accept the way I am - and it's something I've learnt to control, despite what others think.⁘ Having undergone five rounds of intensive radiotherapy, Louise ran her first, virtual London Marathon, on October 2nd, 2022, weeks after finishing treatment. The charity volunteer ran virtually again in the 2023 London Marathon and vowed to take part in-person the following year.
