This very cold and crisp Febuary our dental nurse Lucy ran in the London 10k for Cancer Reasearch UK.
Running and generally keeping fit is Lucy’s passion and strongly believes a healthy heart and body equals a healthy happy mind.
Its hard to drag ourselves out on these dreary winter months, when its dark and cold- but anything is possible when we put our minds to it. And wow do we feel better for the fresh air, the sunlight and endorphins!! And added bonus- ITS FREE, no horrid gym membership, and lets face it running on a treadmil is drab!
Lucy stepped out of her comfort zone about 4 years ago, when she couldn’t even run 1k, but after alot force she dragged herself out and pushed herself every day to get fitter and healthier, and believes running is the best therapy to clear the mind and burn some calories.
So if you have been contemplating running for a while- just go, put on some running shoes and go- simple!
Start slow, run and walk, find a park or simply get the tube somewhere and run…. I do not think there is a better city to run in.
Maybe see you next year running the Winter London 10k
With incredble city views and amazing atmosphere, its a great fun day out. Not mentioning rasining money for such a wonderful cause.
Cancer touches each everyone of us at some point in our lives so its a good feeling to do a little something to help.
