I got dressed in my running gear this morning , drove to work , saw a couple of people then started out , didn’t really want to do it , ran along the river where I’ve been before but the path blocked so up onto the road, followed a guy jogging along bit older than me so thought “I’ll keep him in my sights “he stopped and I said to him you can’t stop I’m following you 🤣 he then proceeded to tell me he runs for hundreds of miles , across Spain , Italy and said he’d run a bit with me then said he’d stick with me and back to work to complete a 10k and he did!! A lovely man! He said it’s a huge achievement and it is ! He also said I have good form and keep it up ☺️ So there you go I just need to keep it up , the last 2 k I couldn’t stop smiling

Oh wow. Well done. Your inspiring me to try and get beyond 5k. You have proved there are some lovely people out there and you were lucky enough to find one at a great time for you.
Yes he restored my faith in humanity , for a while at least 🙈 . keep going, I literally still can’t believe it as I used to say “I can’t run” so if I can do it anyone can x
How lovely for that man to run with you like that! Huge congrats on your first 10k - that's a big milestone to reach and I bet you are still smiling even now!
Who said Angels aren't among us! That's such a lovely humanitarian post and what a way to celebrate your first 10k, with another example of the kindness of strangers. Well done you, and fingers crossed he's around when you go for your half-marathon. Best wishes ☺️
