So I did it, yep I went on a run, I could avoid it no more. The New Year has been hailed in, resolutions made. The first one was pretty painful, not gonna lie, it sucked. It was cold, icy and I really find stretching tedious. However it happened. I went 5 miles (approx) and this successful endeavour encouraged me to continue, so I left it a couple of days (don't want to be too keen) and did it again. So now I feel like I'm building stamina or something similarly technical. Which lead me to thinking I'd try to run 10. Yep 10 whole miles.
Well I can safely say I am in pain, not that ole 5 mile pain, more aching, more permanent, more creaking knees. I didn't time myself, don't need that kind of pressure just yet thank you, just pushed on through, could have been more like a quick walk for all I know. But.. crucially, I'm feeling encouraged. I might be able to do it. I really could be in with a chance of completing the London Marathon.
