I did it, managed to not stop, even if I was going quite slow. Just pacing is the key, as I keep saying
Only problem was lower leg pain, kinda like shin splints but all around my leg, and It's weird because sometimes I get them and sometimes not... Just a shame because as a Student I can't afford to spend loads on special running shoes.
Anyway, as the woman says, I can now call myself a runner, and to have done it feels great!
“Suddenly, I was part of something. I was part of the running community. The more open I was about my running, the more open others were about theirs. I found out that runners love to talk about running.”
