Training is going well !! I had a great climb of Snowdon with CYM and took my son Ben along too for his first climb. The great thing about CYM is many people have not experienced the climbs before and its great to help out and encourage everyone and see how much they enjoy it !
Running continues and last weekend I completed the Bananaman 10k at Willen Lake ... it was a great morning with lots turning out to this event. A pic will follow !
Next weekend I am taking part in the Blacks 5k Trail run.... a new kind of challenge for me but should be fun as its a Trail run around Dunstable Downs. I have done lots of hikes here but not a trail run... so should be good ! and great training.
My job is going well.... working in retail is a new learning curve but I am meeting lots of interesting people and its good to advise them on the best kit to buy for their activities ! I met the legendary Ron Hill at the Blacks running launch and that was a very inspirational day.
So far, my fundraising for Breastcancercare has gone well. My friend Tracey hosted a lovely lunch event at her house for me and we had 27 ladies... we made over £900.00 which will go directly to Breastcancercare. I felt very emotional that day after the event.... some had lost close family due to breast cancer and it brought home to me my strong reasons for doing this climb for such an important cause.
If this charity was not in place the important research that has saved so many lives, including mine, would not have been in place.... I feel so lucky to be here and to be able to do this.
