My daughter and I have just completed our 1st cross country event.

Crazy hills lots of mud and a slower time than usual but... we did it! The best part is we did it together.

Thank you c25k and all of you

Now snuggled watching great south run. Congrats to anyone taking part, has given us huge inspiration to keep running and cross fingers enter next year xxxx

(Picture is my 14 year old daughter soooo proud of her)

Thank you so much. Yes smiling so much, 6 months ago struggling running 1 minute. It’s quite surreal.

Such a beautiful memory for a Mother and Daughter duo to have. You are inspiring her to achieve great things. Good work tackling that challenging terrain and showing the mud who's boss :D
