At the weekend, I dusted off my trainers and managed to complete a half-marathon.
This wasn’t my first rodeo: several years ago, I had been a very enthusiastic runner and completed two half-marathons. I slipped out of practice though (long commutes will tend to do that) and my running shoes lay neglected in a corner of my flat for years. It was only recently, eager to find ways of seeing people while still keeping COVID-safe, I tentatively ventured back to my local parkrun and the rest is history.
