Jane took up running by mistake in June 2015 when she took her teenagers to parkrun and was encouraged by a friend to run/walk it instead of watching. She had always hated running at school and came last in every race! She joined Durham Mums on the Run in September 2015 and has come to love running more and more. She runs to eat cake and drink wine but more importantly for the friendship and enjoyment of running together in all weathers and feeling awesome afterwards! She says "I've gained so much from DMotR - friends, fitness, confidence - I want to help others benefit too."
