Since all your wonderful response with sponsoring my daughter Sarah in The Race for Life I thought I would show you this picture of Sarah, taken last Sunday. Sarah has really been bitten by the running bug and ran Asics British 10 K run in London. Sarah has now signed up for other charity races thoughout the year.

Hugs, Jane. bear_thumb

Hi Cyndee, no I didn't take the picture, it was taken by Marathon Photos, they take all the race photos.

Sarah is well and truly into running now, on Monday we were going through hide park in London and she was working out a route to run, she now sees every strip of pathway as somewhere she can run. It's so great to see Sarah doing this as she herself spent ten years of her life using a wheelchair.

Hugs, Jane. bear_thumb

Hi Jane,

It's so great to see Sarah enjoying her running and doing it for charity as well. I really admire her spirit.
Will she be coming with you to Hugglets in September, so I can say Hi ? Maybe some of her energy will rub off on me, because I could definitely use some exercise :crackup: !

Give her a big hug from George and me, :hug:

Love, bear_flower

Hi Jane, bear_flower

That is so neat what Sarah is doing, running for Charities.
So amazing to hear that she spent ten years in a wheel chair, I just read.

Hats off to Sarah and good luck with the future races she goes in.

Hugs
Carolyn

Tell Sarah congrats! Watch out, she'll be running longer races before you know it. I was running regularly a few years back. I had a few injuries and never got back into after they healed. I need to get going again. You do get hooked!

Hugs,
Alison
