As a child I really wasn’t sporty. I used to forge notes to get out of PE lessons, and I hated exercise. As an adult, not much changed: I just did the bare minimum. You know the kind of thing; I’d join a gym in January and never go again for the rest of the year!
My husband, who was my boyfriend at the time, was the total opposite to me. He was training for a half marathon and I said how much I’d love to do one at some point. He responded with: “You’d never be able to do a half marathon!” I fell for his reverse psychology hook, line and sinker.
