Hello, have you ever tried to start to run regularly? Did you persevere? How well it did go?
I started in 2012 for the first time, it took a while to learn to run without stops, when I just walk to gain strength again, but I succeeded, then stop, then I started many times again, and stopped, and finally in maybe January 2016 I finally did not stop, in june 2017 I broke my elbow while running, and I even ran few races since 2018, even though I am not very good at it. I have fond memories on every race, that I took part of, even bad performances, and running helps me to relieve stress.
I especially like running around villages, small hills, field roads near my home.

I’m planning on doing this over the summer since I’m now fully vaccinated.  There’s actually a park right across my house, so I can basically get many steps on my smart watch just by running a full lap around the park.
