Farewell Astrid
A fond farewell to Astrid Michele who had moved to Portugal permanently. Astrid who was a very popular and active member of the club Astrid was with us just over two years and did her her 5Km with us. She has just completed the Lisbon Half Marathon and is well on her way to the full.
We wish her the very best and happy running in the warmer climate of Portugal..
