My photo album reminds me it’s exactly a decade since I last took up running, intent on moving from Couch to 5K.
Amusing, because I just bought myself a new pair of running shoes, intent on trying again.
Ten years on, I think I’ll be more sensible this time, and restrict myself to jogging on the flat ground along the base of the valley, instead of running up and down hills as I did last time.
All that did was highlight how weak my bones are, rapidly bringing my running adventures to a halt.
This time, I will start again with more modest expectations, inshallah. Forget the 5K. Let’s just try to transform from couch potatoes into simple hashbrowns. That will satisfy me.
