Thanks to walking through the doors of Slimming World in September 2014,  I'm now 4 and a half stone lighter and can now run! As the pounds have gone, so my confidence has grown and I'm now able to think about my personal health and fitness. Entering the Bath 5k is something I'd have never dreamt of doing and is my goal to improve my fitness.

I've chosen the Bath 5k as other Slimming World members and now friends, will be running and walking on the day too. Raising money for Cancer Research is also a big motivator as I sadly lost my fabulous Mother-in-Law to bowel cancer in 2007. She was the most amazing woman - full of energy and selflessness. She would be running beside me if she could x
