RACE FOR LIFE! Personal challange

 Hi there! A personal challenge and a MARK of achievements. I had decided last year at the Race Fo Life event that personally I will run it this year! I was stunned by all the amazing messages and the general awareness of people in UK towards breast cancer. I had lost a dear friend or two in the massive battle against Breast Cancer and on the day of my race for life this year I stumbled over an acquaintance who watched on the race with tears in eyes having found out she also has breast cancer. I was so sad....and it made me realise more and more women suffer and I can do something about it...yes I can. I can do something about my LIFE (and this is my personal challenge and has always been) and I can do something for those whom I love and are generally around me.
 I had come a long way! I had breast surgery in February and Sunday May 18th 2014, I HAD COMPLETED ANOTHER DREAM!:) I RAN 5 km and completed the race with 34:48min which was such a good time. I did it all alone, same as my surgery and other personal challenges but had a brilliant husband to support me and children and also a fantastic friend and trainer Stuart Ives.
The legacy for Breast Cancer Awareness continues and I am happy to keep up the running and the personal training......! I love big goals I love doing the personal challenges and not only physical ones. I will be busy over summer training to get better at what I do as a job and that also involves some discipline. I will also concentrate on achieving other personal targets....God willing I shall be reporting of other great achievements. For now....I hope and pray one day cure to CANCER WILL BE FOUND that those who suffer will find peace and comfort and get better and overcome their ordeal. Thank you to all who supported me and cheered me on.
