Pam started with the Sale club at the beginning of September 2018 and was already making headlines by the end of the year! She was a hot contender for our 'Runner of the Year' award in December, nominated by many in the club who were just so inspired by her journey. She later went on to win ‘Sale Hero of the Year’ in 2019.

Pam was a complete beginner when she started with the MileShyClub. She had never exercised before and had been obese for over 30 years. Pam readily admits she isn't the fastest runner in the club but for her it's all about the taking part. She is often accompanied by runners during races who want to take the pressure off and enjoy running with a friend. Pam has lost an amazing four stone since starting with us but it is her wonderful friendship that makes her so special to us all.

Pam later trained to become a coach with MileShyClub in 2019 and now coaches at our Urmston and Partington clubs. She is the driving force behind our Couch To 5K programmes and lots of our runners credit Pam with giving them the support and motivation to finish the course.
