As some of you who know me are aware I suffered a series of heart attacks and had 2 surgeries over Christmas and the new year....(great timing body thanks!) Anyway just two months after my 2nd op I am running the Brighton 10k this Sunday and the Hackney half marathon on the 20th May. Both of these events were booked before my issues but I have decided to do them with the British Heart Foundation as my obvious choice . So if you could spare a pound or two that would be amazing Donate Here |

Sorry to hear the news. I assume you are a runner as I'm amazed at how quickly you have recovered.
Good luck.

Sorry to hear the news. I assume you are a runner as I'm amazed at how quickly you have recovered. Good luck. I am not a runner in anyway shape or form unless it is on a football pitch. All started as a joke when I said a couple of years ago I was going to run a marathon at the dinner table which caused hysterics with my family..."you will never do one" ... in 2 years I did 2 marathons 2 half marathons and a 10k and raised over £5k. Dr's said it was probably the fact that I did these that I am alive to tell the story! I got the all clear to resume excercise last Wednesday...I am never to do anything be half measures so why not  |

Who knew you could do that so soon after surgery? The miracles of modern science eh (with obvious acknowledgement to your determination and hard work). I absolutely love running and would certainly miss it if I couldn’t do it. Guess we take these things for granted.

I absolutely love running and would certainly miss it if I couldn’t do it. Guess we take these things for granted. Modern technology is amazing. The surgeon told me hearts should only go for around 50 years as it is! I hate running but no plenty who have the running bug. I missed being on a football pitch drove me mad but thankfully the weather has wiped out most of the games. |
