well it has been a while since I was last on this site, a lot had changed since then. My wife of 50 years died in August last year, but in continued my running and swimming. I now swim every day for 45 minutes, I have done several parkruns, or as I like to call them park staggers, but at least I get to the end of the run, I even enjoy volunteering at the run to assist others.

Best thing I ever did was begin the coach to 5 k, excellent program, good luck to everyone who is on it or considering starting, I’m 76 year of age and if I can do it anyone can do it x
