I took up running not long ago, in 2013 when my first son was born and I could no longer waste half a day to play football :-)

I enjoy running outside whatever the weather, preferably on turf surfaces. I've done the half marathon distance unofficially several times, and thought that the Royal Parks Half Marathon would be an amazing opportunity to record my first official race, contribute to a noble cause and meet like-minded people.
