Hamilton Lake Parkrun
Parkrun is proving to be a great way to relax on the weekend. It is a 5km timed run, which takes place every Saturday at 8am all over the world. It started back in 2004 in Bushy Park, Teddington, UK with 13 runners getting together.
Now it is an international family of about three million park runners. There are more than 1800 locations in twenty-two countries across five continents.
Endometriosis is a chronic disease affecting hundreds of thousands of women globally. Endometriosis is often referred to as ‘endo.’ Recently the spotlight has been on women’s reproductive issues especially common conditions such as endometriosis and PCOS (PolyCystic Ovary Syndrome). Endometriosis is a lifelong disease with an incredibly high chance of returning even when surgically removed. Endo can also develop into PCOS which is intensely painful by itself. Despite the frequency of endometriosis occurring in women the disease is still relatively unexplored, treatments are frustratingly limited and many women are not taken seriously when telling their doctors about their pain.
