The journey taken by a one-time half marathon runner through training for the Bristol 10k in May 2009
Can I do it??

Feet aching, small blister on toe, feeling of invincibility - I must have been for a longish run. Actually forget the last bit, I feel like I'm about to fall to pieces.
I may seem like a paragon of exercise and healthy living (running, gym, cycling, vegetarian) but it's all to do with denying the inevitable slide into middle age - in fact everything I do has some root in fighting the ageing process. I know I'm going to lose and ultimately it doesn't really matter anyway - but I will keep fighting as long as I can be arsed.
