Ruth Gili-Ross

I began running in 2017 starting by completing the Manchester Colour Run with friends. I then regularly ran the Lytham Hall Parkrun. In November 2017 I completed my first 10k, the Lytham Windmill run. After recovering from an injury I decided to join the very first Freck & Warton Couch to 5k where I met other likeminded people. Eventually the running club was formed and I became a founding member, club secretary and am now a run leader and Ladies Club Captain. With a lot of help & support I ran the Freckleton Half Marathon in 2018 and have since supported others doing the same.
