Iram first started coming to the club at our Sale Water Park sessions in the Summer and was full of doubt about her ability.  She didn't believe our coaches when we said she could work up to running 5k - she was adamant that it wasn't going to happen. Week after week, Iram showed up, progressing just a little further, much to her amazement. Her family didn't believe that the girl they knew who never exercised before was learning to run, so much so, that they came down to watch (in disbelief!) 

Even the little things like our warm up games sometimes seemed impossible, but after some perseverance, Iram has now mastered lunges (most of the time!)

The Club has given Iram the confidence to try out distances she never thought possible - there is now no stopping her!  Incredibly, Iram recently completed the Media City 10k in 50 minutes, 47 seconds and the Wilmslow half marathon in 1 hour 55 minutes.  Phenomenal achievements for someone who started out as a beginner runner with us last year.  Kudos Iram!
