No question HuL, just that I’m amazed I’ve got this far

For someone who struggled to climb two flights of stairs earlier this year after a gruelling bout of the dreaded head and neck c - I’ve actually completed run 1 of week 9!

Only two runs to go until I graduate.

I’m amazed, delighted and really rather proud.

If a decrepit 64 year old can do it, you guys can too. It’s been incredible and something I never thought I’d achieve.

Thanks you Sarah Millican and Cto5K - you rock!

Ps: I’ve even registered for ParkRun and looking forward to taking part! Something I would never have dreamed of before now!
