Margaret was the only one to make it to the 7pm session……what a star she was….here is a woman who could not run 200m, nor do a pushup when she started this journey…..found myself looking at her in awe as she held herself vertical on her hands and walked back and forth along the wall……and then she cranked out the 50 8-counts having just been introduced to them…..outstanding…..and thank you Margaret for allowing me to share this journey
