Fabulous. It’s amazing to complete these longer distances that seemed impossible not so long ago. Well done you! 👏👏👏

Congratulations that’s great and well done for actually doing cross country at school. I used to go and hide in a friend’s house. I absolutely hated it!!! 😊

Look at us now 52 and running long distances like this. Nearly at 10k and graduation!

Brilliant - well done - when I was at school we used to run to the first hedge and hide there till the others came back before tagging along at the back - no wonder I am struggling these days!!
