Race for Life
This is me setting off on my 5K adventure around Hopetoun House after my warm up with 1800 others. The photo of me returning is not so sprightly so I will keep that in my photo album. It was a very emotive experience, reading the messages and being part of a movement that hopes to raise £50M for cancer research. Perhaps it is not really surprising as so many people are touched directly or indirectly. But it is not all bad news - there are survivors and hope for many.
Thank you to all who sponsored me - the support and encouragement kept me going, despite a dodgy knee, not being very fit and absolutely not a natural athlete. You will be glad to know that is my fundraising for this year!
However I do intend to keep running - I almost enjoy the dull monotony of my early morning trips around the streets of Trinity and maybe I will get a bit fitter.
If I can do this - anybody can do it!!
