1st anniversary run

I can't believe I have been running for a year now. I started just after my 64th birthday to give my heart some exercise and here I am still going 3 times a week. I have even persuaded a friend of similar age to start and she seems to be enjoying it too. I have recently improved my 5k pb to 34mins 25 secs. My Mum still lives on her own at 101, so watch this space!

Superb. Those are good genes you have but you deserve lots of credit for your own efforts too, and well done on recruiting your friend. Remember to recruit her to this forum too!
