Parkrun this morning on my 60th birthday. Wow a new PB, now sub 29 mins, what a birthday present I've earn't.

Started C25K last August, overweight and unfit. What a difference sticking with it can make. Happy birthday me.

Congratulations. Have a wonderful day. What a fantastic way to celebrate such a milestone birthday. You can proudly say you've done something a (sadly) too small proportion of 60 year old men can do.
