You should invite your husband on a run ! You are proving that you can do it and well done to you . My father in law is 85 and runs every day!

Oh well done to him. My husband was a body builder along with his late wife 20 years ago so according to him he has done his share lol. Furthest he will go is from his computer to his car . Thank you for your continued encouragement x
