East Coast Park! The nemesis of many 🙄

Btw, I can totally relate to everything in this post. Except for your first 5k attempt... my version only happened in my head 😁

How about starting with gentle walks, dear Parul, and getting into shape. The thought of running fills me with terror now, though. I have fractured my wrist while walking at a comfortable pace: heaven knows what all would break if I ran and tripped over my own feet. (The Earth's crust, for one)
