I started running last year after reading Ben Wilson’s wonderfully Brysonian memoir, One Year Without Social Media, a memoir that properly soars whenever 5Ks and 10Ks are in the offing.
I often walk with a stick for balance, so I assumed that running would be beyond me. It turned out it wasn’t. Sure, I have wallowed for a year, moving back and forth between the middle weeks of Couch to 5K, but I’m still running, and I haven’t fallen yet. Turns out I like running! I read books about it. I bought a snood. I talk to other runners. I have Parkrun friends!
