On Saturday, I took part in my first Park Run at Victoria Park in Leicester to complete my 5k challenge for Together Against Cancer where I work every Thursday supporting people who are living with cancer with massage therapies and reiki.
This was in lieu of the firewalk challenge I was supposed to do with Valerie Viot in April, which sadly got cancelled and to say thank you for your donations for that. Thank you Val for suggesting the 5k challenge.
I came in third in my age category (yay) at 29 mins and 20 secs with a screaming right hip (boo). But I think I’ve found a way to do this mindfully with good nutrition and prevent injury so I look forward to working towards a 10k over the winter.
