Jessica Williams is raising money for The Dementia Experience
It’s been nearly 20yrs since I last ran, and in January I decided to try again! I really wasn’t sure what was possible - would it be my back or my knees to give up first? But I couldn’t help thinking that if I didn’t try now then I never would, and I’d regret getting to old age and be saying that i hadn’t run since I was 33.
So here I am, slowly but surely doing a little bit more each week with the body is still playing along!! woohoo!
Honestly it really feels like a miracle - only a few years ago I was huffing & puffing just moving around the house or on a regular walk. I had 2 bulging disks during Covid and was regularly bed-bound for weeks at a time!! I even got stuck unable to fly home once as i couldn’t sit, nor walk due to back pain…. but slowly slowly after 8yrs of pain, I’ve been building up strengthen and now I’m weight training twice a week for the last 18months, skiing, sitting through long drives & flights, and RUNNING!!! It’s such a joy that I didn’t ever think possible!
I’m raising money for Dementia Experience as it means the world to me - it’s my sister’s amazing community organisation for the families, caregivers & sufferers in the UK. Our dear Mum is one of so many afflicted by this dreadful disease and what she does is incredible!
