Annie Windley, a 21-year-old from Derbyshire, UK, has bravely shared her battle with anorexia to inspire others. Diagnosed in 2012, Annie’s weight dropped to just 29 kg (63 pounds), putting her health at severe risk. After years of hospital stays, she began her recovery in 2017, using her love of running as a tool for healing.
Annie has since gained weight and completed the Chesterfield Half Marathon, a symbol of her progress. “Changing for the better is never too late,” she says, emphasizing that recovery is a process of self-love and perseverance.Annie encourages others to focus on personal growth, celebrate small victories, and let go of the regret and sadness tied to eating disorders. Her journey is a powerful reminder that healing is possible, and it’s never too late to embrace change.
