My personal message:

I did it! Not only that - but surprised myself by doing it in an hour and 15 minutes. Not bad for an old bird with no running experience who couldn't walk up to 2 flights of stairs 4 months ago!

The huge support via the comments and generous donations really helped to keep up the training.

Next up is the walk the walk half marathon in September!


Thanks for your support

Rachel
