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.

Keep it up
Hannah has been trawling my old posts when I could be bothered to post every day.
Maybe I should have maintained my musings about life in general, or maybe not. I used to enjoy blogging but the pressure to blog daily became too much, and that's when the children had fewer evening commitments and when I was working fewer days in the week.
Maybe I'll try a few more blogs in 2019 than I achieved in 2018, which isn't exactly difficult as 2018 was a bit of a drought.
No promises but if something tickles or irritates me, then I'll share it here.
