Although, races here tend to be very big and anonymous; and while triathlons do have proper age groups, most running races here don't seem to do that at all - it's just '18 to 45' or '18 to 35' and 'Masters'. Annoying!

People in that age group are more settled in other aspects of their lives - their careers are usually at a relatively settled place, if they have children the children are old enough not to need attention 110% of the time, and so on; so they have a little more time to be themselves, and that includes dedicating time to training! Perhaps that'll be true for you? :) Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08281336239355942919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988009473800206542.post-64298784532083667662014-01-18T11:06:08.374+08:002014-01-18T11:06:08.374+08:00Hi Ciaran!
