Never too late

At my daughter’s suggestion I decided to give the Couch25K programme a go after I became allergic to the swimming pool in December. I haven’t run in50 years and although I walk the dog every day and do a bit of lightweight hiking, my exercise of choice for many years has been yoga. On reflection this has helped me develop a reasonably strong core and good flexibility, but ...running? I’m really amazed and happy that I’ve got to week 5 with no problems and feel great. Although I won’t get to the 5k goal by my 65th birthday in 2 weeks, I feel sure I will make it. Whoever designed this app deserves a medal.
