I am a newbie

I have never set myself new years resolutions or cut out things for lent – partly because I didnt want to but it just seems like a lot of hassle!  However this year I wanted to set myself a goal, something to fill my time with and to accomplish through the year.

I decided that if I aim to learn, try and focus my time with one thing a year then the year is never wasted. I admit, when I set myself this goal I didn’t picture it actually happening. I thought saying it would be enough and never really commited to anything before.

My goal was to start running with the aim of running 5K without feeling like death, looking like I needed emergency care or struggling with every step from start to finish. I began running two months ago, roughly March 13th 2015, and I have stuck to running twice a week. I joined a running group called ‘Harvel Hash House Harriers’ and I am the newbie of the group, it’s as much a social club as it is a running, which is realy a perfect combination. If anyone else is interested there are lots of ‘HHHH’ running clubs across the UK – check it out!
