Going back in time!

Just completed w5R1. 3 years ago in August I prolapsed my discs and was told I needed surgery on my back. I have built up my core through grit and determination and now class myself as a runner. No surgery needed now. My (now ex) surgeon told me I could run a marathon if I wanted to (one 5k at a time please!). Totally addicted to this and feel so happy. Love reading all the posts. We are all runners and we CAN do this! X
