Sammy - Sydney Half Marathon 2011

Sammy ran her first 1/2 Marathon in May this year in Felicity's name. She trained hard doing dancing sessions each week to cross train and built up her running distances as the weeks progressed in the lead up to race day!
Sammy has spent alot of time with Felicity when she used to live close by so Felicity has a special position in her heart. This is Sammy's contribution to Felicity's program.

IN 2010 THESE AMAZING FRIENDS of FELICITY RAISED AN ENORMOUS $7,000. WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL TO HAVE THESE PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES.
