Strange but see a lot of first timers!
Monday, 05 April 2010 - Written by mohanty401 [profile]
I have been reading a lot of stuff lately on running, marathon / half marathon trainings, fitness, diets, cross trainings etc and have come across a lot of websites on the subject and its amazing that so many of the readers for these websites have either just ran their first full/half -M or are preparing for one.. including this site, there are so many of us here training for their first distance run... now is this a phenomenon which is true all the time.. I mean is it that its the same number of different people who are always training for their firsts or is it something unique to these times??? dont have an answer... and the other strange thing - most of us are in our mid-late thirties / early forties... now is there a pyschological explanation for the thing.. picking up a goal to achieve at the mid age or a sudden awareness / need to get fit .. readying ourselves for the second half... After my second pregnancy I sure knew I do not want to walk into my forties feeling big, slow, not liking my body and thats when I started working out regularly and now the half -M is a goal I do want to achieve....
