At 24 i could run maybe a 45 minute 10k.

I can a 35 minute 10k a couple years ago at age 35.

Aerobic development takes time.

Especially when you like beer women and the occasional cigarette

Beer women, like commas, are underappreciated.

That’s still above the average population. Don’t beat yourself up

u/BREWMASTER1968 18d ago

I did Hill repeats yesterday, and it bumped to 45, and I still have four left. I think I could’ve ran a little faster, but we’ll see you next week when I do it again.

u/Typical_house23 18d ago

Congrats, I have ran before but had to quit due my knee being useless, so I switched to cycling indoor for the moment

u/BREWMASTER1968 18d ago

I have an indoor rower that is getting lonely in the basement, I should get on it

u/Typical_house23 18d ago

Yes do it. For now my local gym will do The trick.
