2018 was first year of running and it was super fun:
-starting running after a drunken bet in February on a Friday that I could run a marathon within 48 hour. Come Sunday night at about 5pm I head off from Bristol towards Bath wearing a pair of non-running New Balance’s. 4 hours and 47 minutes later I made it but for the next two days I was literally bed bound.
-Running around Bristol was an absolute pleasure and going over the Clifton Suspension bridge was always great.
-This summer of running, with the weather, was absolutely fantastic and made continuing my new hobby so much easier.
-Beating my marathon time by an hour in October and getting in under 4 hours.
-Finally, after setting myself the goal of achieving a sub 20 5k by the end of summer I got one last week along with my first Park Run.
Next year, I’d like to enter a marathon that has other people in, join a club, get a sub 19 5k and stop being a twat on a Friday night so I can get to more park runs.
