I have never been a competitive person in all my 40 something years. I've never cared that I come last in most things- at least I take part. As a child I watched my 4 siblings cheat constantly at Monopoly, Kerplunk and Buckeroo to get the upper hand and couldn't be bothered to try and keep up when I could sit still & lose for a quiet life.
But now, following the blogs on this forum, I committed a couple of weeks ago to doing a Parkrun on 2nd June and tonight alone I have emailed my local running group to ask about sessions near me AND signed up for a 5k race on 27th June.
And why? Because so many graduates on here are inspiring me by moving onward and upward and I don't want to be left behind!!!!!
Looks like C25K changes people in more ways than just getting fit.....
Congratulations on the running club and the races. Keep us informed how it goes.
