(as long as there's a get out clause and you're not subscribed for the next decade!).
After weeks of a sustained back injury over the summer, I'm back to my modest 30 -35 miles a week mainly on my local fells. For me, I'm less competitive with myself now and cautious of pushing it too far (distance and physically) due to potentially annoying injury. My goal, at 63 years of age, is to be running on the fells for a least the next decade or more (if I'm spared by The Almighty :) !!)and simply enjoying the buzz of running over the heather and tops.
