Well-done ME!

I am so proud of myself that I managed to go and provide massage for some of the London Marathon runners for Cancer research! Never mind the chill!

It was such an inspirational event!

I worked in a hall with twenty five massage tables in it and perhaps forty enthusiastic massage therapists, most of them bright young things, knowing their trade and demonstrating the best of it!

It was humbling experience meeting so many people from all walks of life, who had just finished a 26-mile run, arriving at the massage hall limping or with stiff cold limbs telling us they were “All right” and enquiring if we had painful hands massaging so many people in one day. Yet they were the actual heroes of the day! They have raised 2 million for Cancer research!

I am only glad I could join the team, it was a team work with so many others doing the many small things which made this so well organised event happen! Myself and the colleague I paired up, we stayed and worked after most of the other therapists had packed and gone. We treated the last arriving marathon participants yet they had been running for over eight hours! So, it was a marathon for all of us!

WELL DONE US ALL!
