Jenni: Join a run to cope with grief

Scot calls on joggers to support club

- BY STORM NEWTON

A RUNNING club is aiming to connect people dealing with grief and Scots TV presenter and fitness fanatic Jenni Falconer is getting right behind it.

Marie Curie and running community Run Your Mind have set up Grief Run Clubs, which will take place once a month from January to April in London.

Those experiencing grief will be able to support each other while running 5km.

The 49-year-old Scots mum of one said: "I absolutely love running and from personal experience, it comes with significant physical and mental benefits.

"When I run my mind feels clear, any stress eases and it’s as if the weight lifts off your shoulders.

"It's my meditation time too as it allows time to think, focusing on the positives as opposed to any challenges being faced that day.
