Wendy Miller-Williams. 5K for Fair Frome

I had watched the Frome Half Marathon runners over the last 5 years and had a vague feeling I'd also like to be out there, too, but had never run since school. In April this year, I discovered that Couch to 5K is a thing! I popped into the Frome Deka shop and had an inspiring chat with Laura, who convinced me to have a go at their course. Currently on week 8, thoroughly enjoying it and feeling so much better for having started. It seemed inconceivable 8 weeks ago that I would be running non-stop for 30 minutes, but it is do-able and I'm loving it! Fair Frome is a brilliant local charity i work for, that runs the food and furniture banks, gets involved with campaigns (such as the current Access for All) & community dining events. I am running the 5K for them, in order that we can continue to help alleviate the effects of poverty for local people. Thanks to anyone who feels able to support me and Fair Frome!
