Well done! Racing is real fun. Who knew 😁💪🏃✔️

Just go steady! It takes 18-24 months to build running legs so,work on some slow running which builds legs. Have you done Stepping Stones podcasts?

Thanks. I'll look the podcasts up. Great to see you've graduated to half marathon.

Well done. I love the buzz of an event. You will find lots of good advice on your training on here.

Now training for a full marathon courtesy of C25k programme. Never ran before that!

Taking it steady though is key. Gradually, carefully increasing distance.

That's impressive! I'd love to be able to run a marathon. I could aim to do the Wrexham half marathon. Don't know if it's too late to aim for it next Feb 18th.

I wouldn't be in too big a hurry. Your running legs have to get built 🙂
