Last year, at the height of health and an active lifestyle, Gill was diagnosed with cancer for the second time. Spurred on by her experience, she managed to run 5k in just under 20 minutes, and continued running even after her diagnosis in order to get fit and prepare herself to undergo chemotherapy. Gill explains how parkrun has helped her not only physically but mentally, in both the run up to and throughout chemotherapy.
