Don’t think of yourself as a runner? To tell you the truth, neither did I – until seven months ago when I thought: ‘Hey, how hard can it be to run a half-marathon?’ Who’d have guessed that two months after, I’d be asking the same question about a full one.
For context, I could not run 5km seven months ago – in fact, five minutes was my limit. I got out of breath going upstairs, and thought running was seriously dull.
