Hi, I'm Helen and I'm one of the Far Runner run leaders. I've been running on-and-off for years and years, mostly when med school or training meant there was no time to do organised (organized is USA) group sports. How I got out alive from running solo in upper west Harlem, I'll never know. I carried $5 as "mug money" and a front door key added to my "sneaker" laces. That was LONG before the days of mobile phones. I also got my preference for road (tarmac) running from those years. I did C2 5K seven years ago in the run up to retirement and started running with Ladies Run Group. I decided to train as an official run leader with England Athletics two years ago, and look forward to welcoming you to our club.
