Hey
I'm Ed, 22 and living in Cardiff at the moment. I ran a lot as a teenager, both middle distance track and cross country. Somewhere along the line I lost my motivation, it was probably just adolescence. During the past six months I've rekindled my interest in running and competed in my first public event - the Great South Run in October. My training for it was pretty touch and go, but I really enjoyed the event and began to understand the "running bug" analogy.
Anyway, I'm trying to keep motivated this year. I guess I could make it a New Year's resolution but that wasn't my intention. I did some gruelling interval training today, I just hate winter!
I was hoping to sign up for another event to keep myself motivated and I thought I might step up to a half marathon. So the first thing I want to ask is: What half marathons have other people run and which ones have they enjoyed the most? I don't mind too much about location, I'll travel for a good experience
I hope everyone's enjoying their running. It's nice to find somewhere for us strange folk to congregate! I bet you all know that look you get from members of public that says "why are you doing that to yourself?" heh
I'll shut up now.
All the best anyway,
Ed
