Very interesting and inspirational lectures, I cannot wait to listen to the next 2 lectures in a quiet moment. I think we need inspiration at a time when our profession is under attack from many quarters. How can we be better doctors / Rheumatologists? I don’t have the answers but I am keen to continue trying.

Despite mild hip pain (playing football with kids yesterday) I finished. Certainly well off 90 mins for half marathon so doubling sponsorship money unlikely this point. I am sure will feel better soon. First need ice…..for hip and drink
