About
Jacqui Louise Swallow has lived with bipolar disorder all her life, battling crippling anxiety, debilitating depression, and destructive, whirlwind manic episodes.
The only thing that has consistently helped her, more than medication, practising gratitude, or mindfulness, is running.
What began as a few small steps through tears and inertia culminated in Jacqui completing the Melbourne Marathon in 2023. At her pace, this accomplishment meant roughly six hours of continuous running.
This is the story of her journey of pushing and challenging herself, defying expectations, and achieving something truly exceptional.
