Hi, I am Alma, and I got the blog bug from all the wonderful Janathon blogs! I started running about 3 years ago, inspired by a lovely lady called runorgocrazy who was training for the London marathon. Last year I completed my first half marathon and full marathon. My family and friends think I am crazy as I never did any sport at school and now, on the wrong side of 45 I have taken up marathon running! I am probably the slowest runner I know (10 minute miles on a very very good day!) but like the tortoise I get there eventually!
I have a very patient hubby and two great kids, twin sons who are 18, and they have all been amazingly supportive, thanks guys!
Good for you. And good on your hubby and ‘kids’ too

Nothing wrong with being slow – I think the tortoise beat the hare in the end

I remember aspiring to 10 minute miles once.

It’s not about speed, it’s about getting out there and enjoying the run. Well done!

Hello,
I just noticed that you left a comment on ‘fairweatherrunner’ blog about not receiving a reply from Under Armour.
Many apologies about that… I look after their UK PR and Communications and would love to send you an Armour Bra to review if you are still interested?
Thanks very much and I look forward to hearing from you,
Charlotte
