I’ve been living with AIDS for 30 years but the agony of the last 3 years means I may not have many left. I’m outwardly healthy, still running and am staying positive I can get better.
Thank you all for your love and if I can do anything to help any of you, please just ask. CJ ?

Good morning everyone.
CJ is, unsurprisingly, feeling down but always has the sanctuary of running which I believe has literally been a life saver for him. Thank you as ever for your support and we both wish you a very happy Sunday. Joe ♥️
