I WAS diagnosed with thyroid cancer in October last year.

Two operations, two radiation treatments and I got the all-clear last week.

I still have to get scanned every three months.

The consultant was amazed at how fit I am and I have to give full credit to Shawn Kenny of PT results fitness.

He has encouraged and motivated me right the way through even with my radiation effects of exhaustion and sickness.

I still do three circuit training every week and with all the class's encouragement I did the Total Warrior race last week.

I am 52-years-old and everyone was mostly in their 20s and 30s.

I just wanted to share the good news and that you really can overcome your fears it also shows how regular exercise and the right trainer helps.
