"I now have a better sense of pacing myself and setting realistic goals."
He wants to be able to continue his wellness journey and to hopefully complete a half marathon, and then a full marathon.
Harrison says he has learnt many valuable skills throughout the GRx programme.
"I have learnt everything from how to read food labels, to the healthy food plate model, and new recipes." This invaluable information he now puts into practice.
"All the GRx staff and external presenters were great. Their general awareness, knowledge, and support given was greatly received."
