I've sort of come around to feeling the same. Around 10-12 years ago I went running 5-6 days per week between 8-10 miles per night! I was super fit! Over the years this varied and gradually declined. Now I am 15 stone. I started running again about 6 weeks ago and am now doing 4 miles per run. Its harder on the joints - but i'm feeling the benefits none the less. Im in my thirties now rather than my twenties - but I had become convinced I was just too FAT to run. Feels good to prove yourself wrong. The only gripe I have is not being able to get enough running advice for overweight people (hope not to be next year!). Hi Guys,

I've grown up running now for 7 years. I'm 18 now and I absolutely love running as well. Whenever I'm in a horrible mood... or stressed, I run.

I think I was meant to be a runner, even though not long ago, I said I could never run, I'm a walker... until I started running. I like running because it is my time, for once I'm doing something for myself. Also I feel sooo much better after I had a run. I remember Andrew used to have to battle with the little voice in his head in the start of the training for running... Most of the time I had the opposite problem... my little voice says: 5 more mins Sally: but I really have to go to work, little voice: shower faster! and run another 5 mins... "most" of the time, of course there were times I kept watching the time thinking... hang in there for 5 more mins, then maybe we will stop... then 5 more mins... Usually gets to after 20-25 mins, I'm ready to run more :P But my 30 mins is up :P So I do like running a lot :) Don't have enough time to do more though. I like running.

I have printed of the C25K running program and will be downloading a podcast tonight to go with it. Will be running first thing in the morning. I have also enjoyed your running maps of Auckland. My husband is from Auckland (we live in SE Pennsylvania) and we visit his family quite often. His sister lives at the base of Mount Eden. One of our daily activities while there is to walk to the top along the many paths and then head back down for coffee at Sierra Cafe. We just love Auckland. Regards, Susanna Andrew,

I'm hoping to find inspiration from your blog as I'm just a beginner to transforming my life. Cheers!

If anyone had told me two months ago that I would be a runner and loving it within 6 weeks, I would have laughed out loud. I love how it makes me feel (strong), how it makes me look and how quickly the body adapts to the challenge and demands more. To me it is the best kept secret to overall physical and mental well-being! I only wish I had discovered this years ago!
