About Me
I first started running in 1983, when at 38 I realised that I was pretty unfit. I've nearly always trained alone. I did my first proper race in 1985 - a 10K. I did a couple of Half-M's, and then the Dublin Marathon at age 50. From then my running was erratic until the end of 2007 when I started running regularly again on a small scale. I'm now 75 - which sounds very old!
On 7th October 2010 I achieved 2 targets (PTL) - sub 24 minute 5k and a WAVA over 70%; in fact I did the 5k in 23:26 and got WAVA score 70.93%.
Since June 2011 I had a problem in left leg with acute pain at times, finally diagnosed as Spinal Stenosis, which has greatly affected my performance. In 2016 I got back a little of my former running fitness. On April 30th I recorded my best parkrun to date, 26:08 - WAVA score of 67.44%, which was my best WAVA for 5 or 6 years. Eventually I hope to achieve a 70% WAVA again, if only through age!

Current Status
I first took up running about 1983. I'm now well into my seventies! My aim is to keep running for as many more years as possible, in order to stay relatively fit. I would also like to get back to 70% in the 5K, which I reached in October 2010.

Evangel wrote: Yes, the Welsh Government ruling is that exercise must start and end at home, but there is some flexibility for people for whom that would not be easy or possible. There is no limit on how many times we exercise, though. The same few routes over and over again can become a little boring. We're very limited as there are very few roads which are mainly through the passes between the mountains.13th Jan 2021, 4:10pm

Run (and wade) from home, easy paced, but rather hard going with strong wind and a lot of surface water - and large puddles! such fun today - not; I felt rather sluggish at first, but felt easier after a mile or two.

A slow, easy-paced run from home towards Rhyd-y-Fro to end of pavement, then down towards GCG as far as garage, then return home via footpath & round all bungalows; felt fine.

4.5mi,
51:19 Running - Treadmill
Due to snowy conditions, I opted for our home treadmill; after 1.5 mls easy-pace w/u, I did 2.0 mls at a brisk pace, then 0.5 ml.quite hard, then 0.5ml. easy paced w/d; found it harder than road-running, maybe because I'm not used to treadmill running; felt fine, otherwise.

5mi,
57:20 Running - General
An easyish paced run from home towards Rhyd-y-Fro for about 1ml., then return and down to Upper Colbren, then to New Road via rly. line, and on towards Tairgwaith for nearly 0.4 mls. then home; grateful for the rain which had washed away most of the snow, although I needed to be careful for occasional slippery patches; felt a little sluggish, but OKish.
