"I was a big part of the running community – I was on the committee, helped run the beginners groups. I gave up a lot of time to help new runners, and I loved running myself. Then my running community noticed that things weren’t quite right for me. The whole reason I was diagnosed is because my running deteriorated really quickly.” When she was very ill, Zoe would struggle to get off the sofa, let alone go out for a run, “But I never put my trainers away. And this is what I say to patients now. People have said “I'm putting my trainers away” and I say, “absolutely don't, leave them out, because you're going to get back in them!” - Zoe, member of our Support Team and regular AAT runner
