Meet Anne Davies... Anne has been running with the Potters Trotters for many years and inspires and amazes us with her energy and enthusiasm for racing. She has completed four marathons in the last two years and hasn't finished yet. In 2013, Anne was voted our Trotter of the Year. This is what the award meant to Anne: On the 8th May 2013 was the Potters Trotters Awards Evening held at Sangam Restaurant in Stoke. I had such a lovely night in more ways than I could have ever dreamt of. I arrived early with plenty of time to catch up for a chat with fellow runners. Then the AGM meeting started followed by the presentation of the trophies. There I was clapping fellow runners who got presented with their awards and certificates. Then it was my turn to receive an award for ‘Racer of the Year’ after listening to a lovely speech from Sue Rushton. Whoop whoop!!! There I was wondering where I might put the trophy. Then the next minute I was standing with all the other nominees for Potters Trotter of the Year, having my photo taken and not realising what was to come. My name was read out saying I had won the award. I am ever so overwhelmed, shocked to say the least on being voted Potters Trotter of the year. I do believe that was the first time I was speechless!!! I still can’t believe I’ve won the trophy and thank you all so very much for voting for me. Congratulations too to all the other award winners. Thank you Potters Trotters. Whoop whoop!!! |
