Suzanne Bench

Suzanne Bench: Tried running when I turned 40 so I could carry on eating and drinking same amount! Had only ever run 2 miles when I joined ELR in 2007 and the first night I was at club it was the Oak Hill run!! I made it back alive and got place for London the following year and caught the bug !
