I just completed the Walk for Life for Cancer Research. 5km in 1 hour and 5 minutes. Not bad for a fat old cripple, eh? I wasnt the only one with a stick either. Got really choked up at the end - JD and I just hugged one another, crying and laughing at the same time.
The girls went on ahead - and finished in 58 minutes. They both wore messages on their backs saying, 'for the Nan and Grandad that we never got to meet' - I am so proud of all of us - and Im sure mum and dad would be too.
It was a fantastic atmosphere - sure I will post some photos in the next few days.Off to have my celebratory take away now
