Can’t believe it, I ran 9 miles and could have carried on but it was getting dark. Fellow runners, how did we get to these terrific goals that we set ourselves? It’s amazing, we’re all amazing. Sorry, but I’m on a high as I feel like a proper runner. P.S. it’s my birthday and Im 65 today(30th). Happy running everybody

Congratulations Agelesslass and a very Happy Birthday 🍰 🎂 🎁 🎈

Just think, on your 64th birthday you probably couldn’t run very far at all. 🏃‍♀️👏

This is very true, 2 years ago I was on crutches after having steel pins put in my foot. Life is uncertain, live it to the full that’s what I say.
