Just wanted to share with you my elation at taking part in Race For Life at Shugborough Hall last night! A whole range of emotions, I felt great for raising £500 for Cancer Research, great for being able to walk the whole 5K without stopping, there were a lot that did and last year I probably would have been one of them, I felt buzzed to be in a crowd of women all with the same goal but then on the other hand reading all the memories on peoples backs, I myself had four names which is far too many people to lose to cancer. Beryl who died his year, Chris who was taken some years back now, Mavis who has fought Breast cancer and died and Pam who is fighting it right now.There was also in particular the story of the little girl aged 4 who took part 'to raise money for people with cancer' only for her gran to add that the little girl was fighting cancer herself... how can you not well up at a story like that?
Oh and despite the downpour we smiled all the way through!
