race 001

Only three of us from Woodside staff Racing for Life this year - Chris, me and Irene. Perhaps not surprising as we are amongst the longest serving, who remember Arlene, our colleague who died of breast cancer, the best. Here we are at the start of the race, before splitting up - Irene and I to jog, and Chris to join the walkers.

A pink view - not very flattering of Chris and Irene. I said "Just keep chatting, don't pose," so of course they immediately adopted strained expressions!

A bit hot and bothered at the end. We again missed our perennial 30 minute target, but again came in well under 35 minutes, amongst the first 300, so we were happy.

And here's Edna and the girls - one of my favourite pictures of my very dear late mother-in-law. It's been 12 years now and we miss her as much as ever.
