I’m 48 and I’m a mum of a 16-year-old son and 10-year-old triplets. I’m also a cancer patient. I was first diagnosed with breast cancer 10 years ago, I had a recurrence five years ago, and then a third diagnosis a year ago. I started running at the same time as that diagnosis.
I’ve gone through phases of running before, but it never felt like a healthy thing, just a punishing thing. I didn’t feel like a runner.
With incredibly lovely timing, I got to know Bryony Gordon and we struck up a friendship which revolves around running. Now I’m officially in love with running. I did the Vitality 10,000 in May 2019, which was huge for me. I’d never done a 10K before – let alone in my pants.
I embarked on chemo in July last year because it was in my lung and in my breast, then I had surgery to remove part of my lung and a mastectomy in November. And on the morning of my partial lobectomy, I went running with Bryony and I got a 10K PB.
