Thinking about stuff....

I've come to the decision (realisation?) that I am not an athlete...

Sarah, Lisa, Ada and I after the Cardiff 10k last weekend

After running (and walking a bit) of the 10k last weekend, and running (but walking most of) the 5k parkrun on Saturday, I feel I have given running a go and it's really not for me. I have been doing it on and off for nearly a year and am still not loving it...my knees, ankles and calf don't like it much either!

Skating on the other hand is great, as is bike riding...so planning on doing more of that in the future...I have the 1/2 marathon in 3 weeks or so, so that will be my last run/walk attempt I think...I hope I just manage to finish it to be honest!

shame, but understandable! my knees told me to give up running, even though i really quite enjoyed it. if you ever want company on a bike ride, give us a shout x
