I’m going to start running again.
My last marathon was London 2008 with loads of injuries.
I will have to start from scratch, build in better flexibility, core strength, because I am completely unfit.
That said I’m also swimming twice a week 1600m in 40 minutes
My first target is to run 5km without walking, it’ll be walk-jog-walk-jog-walk-jog walk for a while yet, so couch to 5k in six weeks.
Not sure I’ll ever get to 1hr36min half marathon record again but we will see.
I’ll keep a diary, bought a pair of ASICS Nimbus 26, I’ll upgrade phone so I can use ASICS RunKeeper app. Once I reach that 5k goal.
Things can only get better :)
Download pliability. Do the daily one every day. Do the pre run one before running. Live long and flexible.
