Lots of laughing out loud here this morning, reading that. It’s great when you know what each other has to say, means you don’t have to talk😃. Well done on keeping going, v80 is an aspiration for me too.

I’m really struggling with my “why” at the moment. To cut a long story short, my mental health negatively affected my running, and I’ve not really done much more than a few km a week for a few months. Some weeks it might just be parkrun. But now I’m stuck in a spiral of it being horrible because I feel unfit and not wanting to go out because I’ll hate it. I cried halfway round parkrun this morning. So somehow I need to find my why, but I feel so far off where I want to be it feels unachievable.

Love “They also come with a whole host of rules you didn’t invent, don’t fully understand, but must strictly adhere to at all times!”.
