LAST Wednesday evening I joined approximately 1,200 ladies in the Race for Life, held at the Three Counties Showground, Malvern.

It was the best evening of the year so far, and walking and running was a real treat. Everything was so well organised except for leaving the ground, when chaos seemed to reign.

I do feel, though, that being given Italian bottled water was rather insulting to Malvern with its wonderful spring water.

A special mention should be made of Wyvern FM's DJ Stoney. He was so encouraging, informative and pleasant and the spectators all enjoyed his banter while we were running or walking.

We are already looking forward to next year's event.
