STATUS Ageing body not very cooperative any more, but still plodding on.

About Me
Used to run in the 1970s/80s (ran the 2nd London Marathon in 82). Had kids, stopped running, kept eating, got enormously fat. Decided to do something about it in Aug 2012, lost 6st/40kg, started walking, then jogging a bit. 2013: 20th Apr, 1st parkrun, Oct, first HM in over 30 years. 2014: Ashby 20, Blackpool Mara (32 years to improve a PB!), Berlin Mara. Have now run 77 maras in total, but think I've probably reached my limit now as my ageing body isn't very keen on running long any more. Focus now on shorter distances.
