Rozanne McKenzie, TV presenter and a regular Warrior race participant, adds “Warrior Race has been great for me – every one I’ve done has been the most amazing challenge. It’s been incredibly difficult at times and I’ve had moments when I’ve wanted to give up, but something inside has made me keep going and the feeling of overcoming all those obstacles at the end really is awesome. I would relate this to the fight against cancer by saying NEVER GIVE UP! That’s what The Warrior Race has taught me.”
