On Sunday 15th October, Mrs Smith completed her first ever half marathon.
The Birmingham city takeover began with 9,000 runners taking part in the first Birmingham International Marathon 2017.
This was a major achievement for Mrs Smith, a keen runner who completed the course in 2 hours 15 minutes.
I just want to thank all of those who sponsored me to raise £250 for Cancer Research UK.
Mrs Smith has been training with Redditch running club S*T*A*R*S, every Tuesday and Thursday night, running between 8 and 10 km.
