Jane had always been interested in sports and fitness, but it wasn't
until her early thirties that she decided to take up running.
She started with short jogs around her local park and gradually
increased her distance and speed over time.
Now, in her mid-forties, Jane is a keen runner and takes part in
a few races every year. She enjoys the challenge of setting new
personal records and the sense of community among runners.
Although she sometimes struggles with motivation, Jane finds that
listening to upbeat music or running with a friend helps
her stay
focused and energized. |
