Thanks

Had horrible training cycle this spring/winter, but still managed to finish Flying Pig marathon 5 minutes under target time (and ran the 5 & 10k’s the day before). Fear not, you may surprise yourself!

It’s amazing what can learn from and through our kids. One of the big things I’ve learnt from mine is that we are all individuals with very different strengths and weaknesses. You can’t be good at everything and nobody’s good at nothing.

Hurt the base of my little toe a few weeks ago by kicking my partner in the forearm. Still hurts!
