Former couch to 5K graduates are training for their first 10K at the Town and Gown in May.
Fran Long, and others, are in training after completing the AAC couch to 5K programme.
Fran said "Running has had a big impact on our lives and we have posted our individual stories on a dedicated Facebook page to encourage others as we aim to hopefully also raise lots of money for Muscular Dystrophy UK in the process."
After being inspired by the 5K programme and then running subsequent parkruns, the groups have decided to step up.
"We love taking part in the weekly parkrun and have found everyone to be so encouraging and friendly. Saturday mornings wouldn't be the same without it! Thank you for all the work behind the scenes to make it happen."
This is fabulous news and very encouraging to those of us who lead the groups. We hope that it will also encourage people who may be thinking of giving it a go themselves.
We wish Fran and the rest of team AbFab all the best for the race and hope they all have fun!
