Today is my 41st birthday, and as I traditionally do, I took the day off work because I believe that people should be able to enjoy themselves on their birthdays.
Anyway, I decided to go for a run and did 7K in 41:30, which is not bad for me. I have been trying to get back to a regular running schedule and it occurred to me this morning that I could set myself a nice, new, symmetrical, quasi-mathematical goal between now and my 42nd birthday: to run a marathon, which is 42K.
So there is my new goal for the next year: 42 K by age 42. I’ll keep you posted. If anyone wants to train with me, let me know.
