Did this during pandemic lockdowns. Still running, did my first half marathon last year.


Yep, after years of being a couch- and desk-potato, this got me out and running. That, and having a young and energetic dog in the early stages of lock-down!

I've managed to stick to 5-10km every other day (though it's a challenge in the winter, admittedly), and did my first half marathon in 2:09 a couple of months ago.


Very much in the same boat here - 60 lbs down, still running.

Congrats!


Me too! Never ran a day before COVID - picked up during covid - and ran a sub 100 minute half marathon in 2022.
