That was in 2008, since then I've run 115 races including 12 marathons and 2 ultramarathons. You've truly been bitten by the running bug. Don't worry about the half marathon, you will be amazed at what the body is capable of.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901001069220802588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778157758126536604.post-3298107330518753852016-02-07T12:34:45.108+00:002016-02-07T12:34:45.108+00:00You should be really proud!

I was a non runner until I was about 38, I worked out, just didn't see how running alone could be enjoyable. How wrong I was. I'm no natural runner, but what I lack in natural talent, I make up for in persistence and self motivation. I just had a couple of months off with a badly twisted ankle (which happened as I got off the sofa with a dead foot, and not whilst I was running!).<br /><br />Being able to do something you enjoy, whilst raising money for your sons preschool is a big win-win!<br /><br />Hope the training goes well and you surpass your own expectation.<br /><br />xxDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933494199087059715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778157758126536604.post-86570710653952679292016-01-31T20:35:57.889+00:002016-01-31T20:35:57.889+00:00Well done, sounds like you're doing really wel...Well done, sounds like you're doing really well.

I used to run and got totally addicted running 4 or 5 times a week but I damaged my knee and was advised not to pavement run - destroyed me for a while as running was my thing but I've now found other exercise I love - american pilates - not gentle as you may imagine but i still miss running!
