Still running :)

I haven't posted for a while as I recently lost my Gramps who was like a Dad to me. I lost my Mum 14 years ago and since then me and my sisters have helped look after him. It was hard to keep running with a funeral to arrange and grief to add to the measure but I did and I honestly think it helped me. This week I managed to fit 3 runs in my third being park run and I managed to get a pb of 32m27s! I am almost certain that as long as my legs still work I will always keep on running....happy running peeps! Xxx

Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts. I'm heading to Portugal this afternoon for some chill out time but I've found room to pack my running shoes 😄
