When I first thought about joining the crowd at this year's Race for Life several months ago, it seemed a long way on the future. I have never joined in anything like this and felt it was high time I did. The day arrived all too quickly and today the sun shone, the crowds gathered and 5,000 women donned pink T-shirts and race numbers and ran, jogged and walked the 5km around Meadowhall.
We were walking, as were over half of the field, so we were towards the back of the crowd and took over 10 minutes to reach the start line. The four of us all had our bunny ears, so we could find each other, (Sue is taking the photo) and we managed to walk the 5km in just under and hour.
It was quite warm and we were happy to see this.
Well done everyone who took part, everyone that helped organise it and everyone who stood and applauded our efforts.
A fun event to join in.
