Biggest clubfoot achievements?

Hi all, I was born with bilateral clubfoot and had both feet operated on as a baby. I’m now 29 years old and wanted to reach out to others to ask about your biggest achievements?

I recently climbed Snowdon and it was such an amazing experience. It really motivated me to see how far I can push myself physically, and it’s made me want to accomplish so much more while I’m still young and able.

I’d love to run a marathon one day, although the furthest I’ve managed so far is 15km — so maybe a half marathon is a more realistic next goal for now!

I hope this doesn’t come across as insensitive, as I know many people with clubfoot deal with pain and complications. But I also wanted to share something positive for others — especially parents of young children with clubfoot — to show that it’s absolutely possible to live a full, active life and achieve great things.

I’d love to hear what others here have accomplished :)
