Aerobics avoided

Laura StewartHi, my name is Laura Stewart.

Late last year a friend of mine, Vicky, was challenged to run the Bath half marathon.  I had just come out of a long term relationship was feeling a bit down on myself and decided it was time to get fit so I offered to go for a jog with her and keep her company.

The first night I ran I was completely exhausted by the time I got to the end of the road, we must have looked hilarious to anybody driving past!  A few weeks later we were doing about a mile but really struggling, we had no motivation at all. By this time my friend had persuaded me to join her in the half marathon, somehow I had agreed and came to the conclusion if we were going to take part we had to do it properly.

One evening in January, on the way into our aerobics class we saw the Cotswold Allrunners gathering in the foyer of Stratford Park Leisure Centre in Stroud.
