On Saturday, 29th March 2025, Janet ventured to Cardinham Woods for an invigorating 10K run. Known for its challenging terrain and picturesque scenery, the course features a couple of tough hills that test runners’ endurance. Despite these challenges, Janet found the experience enjoyable, embracing the opportunity to run amidst the natural beauty of the woods.
Meanwhile, back at home, her supportive partner Dennis, took on household duties, humorously noting, “I stayed home and did the hoovering 🤣🤣.”
