Ok so having just re read that post from 3 years ago has reminded me that I never did do that half, and guess what? Im older, fatter, probably slower.
HOWEVER....... I have been a REAL runner for 6 months now!! I do park runs and everything. Yep, at Ashton Court with all those knob ends in lycra running up a banging great big hill at 9am on a saturday morning.
It all started with a C25K course in January. We couldn't run for a minute, but run we did through rain, hail and menopausal sweats. I am doing my 2nd 10Km run in 2 weeks time and have run 10km twice in the last month just as a "practice"
Now heres the thing. I am still very slow, but now, along with my fab running friends I run regularly and enjoy it. I have just signed up for the Half Marathon this year and have entered the ballot for the London Marathon.
There is a problem. I am very overweight. My BMI currently stands at ridiculously obese and this needs to change to improve my running and general health.
I am starting 13 weeks half marathon training next week and would really like a platform to track my (hopeful) progress.
SO here goes.........
