Just over 12 months ago someone, a seasoned runner I might add, suggested we enter the London Winter Run in aid of Cancer Research. Perhaps better known for spooking the neighbourhood and coordinating Christmas fairy lights and certainly more accustomed to visiting the bottle bank rather than the gym, the neighbours down Brunel Walk took up that challenge. 

It was so much fun and so motivating that this year we donned our lycra and did it all over again. Whilst a couple of us have dabbled in running over the years kudos must go to those that started with the ‘Couch to 5k’ plan and then kicked on further to complete 10k and even half-marathons.

See you at the PTA run!
