Amid a global pandemic, Doireann undertook a challenge to run 5km every day for one year. This journey inspired a series of silver pendants, each piece illustrating a reason to keep going.

“I run to escape, I run for therapy, I run to create a space for myself – a space to clear my mind, I run to blow away the darkness and let the light in, I run to keep going, one day at a time, one step at a time”

The third pendant in this collection of work inspired from running 5km every day for one year is one we particularly love – it’s a symbol of personal space and is quite literally an image of a black hole in space etched onto silver. In the centre of the black hole is a domed disc of 18ct gold. This piece of gold represents our personal space.

Having a challenge that centred around doing something every day, although tiring, was also really great – it created personal space, something we all need, yet is sometimes so hard to find. This challenge was the excuse to create it, to carve out that bit of time every day, no excuses, no rain checks.
