My first official 5K fun run

Canine Partners have just posted this picture of my niece and me completing the Humber Bridge fun run last Sunday. In May, we went to Norway for a week's cruise. I realised while we were there how unfit I was and when we got home, I weighed 17 st 5 lb - the heaviest I've ever been. Since then, I have made a serious effort to lose weight, get fit and strengthen my upper body. Being able to do this event under my own steam and run across the finish line with this little treasure was the best feeling ever!

Such a happy picture. You must feel you've made those changes you wished for after Norway, you look like you have a very healthy figure now, glowing with health as well as slim and fit. Hope you and the little pixie had a well-deserved rest afterwards. Congrats :)
