Thank you to the Latrobe School of Physiotherapy for inviting us! Last week our team celebrated another great year. Whilst Melbourne’s weather had its own plans, we were still determined to keep with the theme of ‘Italian Summer’. We let our hair down to master the art of mixology 🍸🍹followed by an Italian feast. Friday morning Run Club with the team. Practicing what we preach! Staying stronger, healthier and happier. This time last week, our team was nervously completing their final preparations for @melbmara . Congratulations to our physiotherapists and ME community who ran on the day. Dilen and Michael completed their first marathons. Abbey and Lizzie smashed out their first half.
