Week 7 of the Cosy Sofa is well underway and all our new runners are now running for a total of 30 minutes each session - a great achievement and major milestone.
We continue to hear some great stories from the runners in the Cosy Sofa. This week we hear from Amy and Jacqueline King on why they joined the Cosy Sofa and how they are enjoying it. Amy says,
I have never ran, but always fancied giving it a go. Then mum, who has ran before but hasn’t done so since Covid, saw the Cosy Sofa advert and suggested we sign up.
It’s a good job we did. We are now in week 7 we are well on our way to completing a 5k and plan on joining Ballymena Runners to continue building on this.
Our group leader, Stephen is very encouraging and we look forward to going to run with our group on a Tuesday night.
Amy, William and Jacqueline
We are so proud of all our volunteers who help at the Cosy Sofa. Without the leaders, tail runners and helpers there wold be no Cosy Sofa. Our thanks to you all including William and Warren who have volunteered at every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday session.
