I started running in 2015.
It was a slow and painful progression through the Couch to 5k app.
I had assumed, once I'd graduated from the app (running continuously for 30 mins but in no way achieving 5k) that my running would go from strength to strength.
After several years, I can confirm that this isn't really the case. I completed our local Parkrun today in just over 40 minutes which is a pretty pathetic time for someone that's been running for years.
My heart rate was at 152 bpm on average and hit 168 at its max. It's not as though I'm not trying. I've run faster times with a lower heart rate. I think my body is just weird and my original assertion that I'm not built for running, is probably true.
