I have bought a copy of this month's Runner's World.
Yes, let me repeat that for you: I have bought a copy of this month's Runner's World.
I didn't even realise I was doing it until I got to the counter and there, beneath my copy of Top Gear like some sordid surreptitious delve into top shelf territory, it sat beaming up at me. A little later it hit me (no, not the magazine, that would be ridiculous) that I am actually starting to enjoy this running lark. In and amongst the motivational quotes I found this which I felt was fairly apt for those of us 'running impaired' folk and made me think of one Mr I Atkinson at the same time:
"Get up and walk if you have to, but finish the damned race." (Ron Hill)
