Anybody else been struck by this terrible disease?
Three months ago I swore that some people just weren't cut out for running and one of those people was me. Then I dragged myself through week one of C25K, and it was terrible, but once I'd recovered I wanted to do it again. And the same with week two, and three, and so on.
Then I dragged myself non-stop round a Parkrun, and it was horrendous, but once I'd recovered I wanted to do it again. And again.
For the first time I can see how people end up at marathon stage because no matter how terrible you feel at the end of a run, as soon as you've recovered you just want to get back out there! I'm afraid I'm well and truly hooked!
