So am just about to start Wk9 and today ran 4 out of 5k in a race for life !! It was 32 degrees and I’m just ecstatic. For everyone who thinks they can’t do it - you definitely can cause I have !! Finished the 5K in 41.5 minutes - one of the best days ever dedicated to my Mum who died from Cancer 18 months ago πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

Well done okes. I am sure your mum would have been so proud. Race for life is so emotional too, reading the messages on people’s backs. What a scorcher too.

Enjoy your graduation week. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
