Fittness Levels

recently I have started taking up the gym and running all as part of my training for the half marathon!
It has actually not been to bad, when I first started I could only walk for about 10 mins and then have to stop due to muscle ache and breathlessness but now both of those things have gone and I can run for more than 30 mins non stop!
It really does show that physically activity is good for you! I wish I took up the gym and running sooner to be honest, even though I have Cf the difference it makes in being able to take a long slow deep breath is actually amazing! I love that feeling of not waking up with a morning cough or a tickle in my throat! I reconmend exercise for anyone, but for my CFers out there especially! Start young, when I was younger my mum used to take me to lots of things, like swimming, guides, army cadets, it maintains your lung funtion for longer and you feel great that you have acheived something at the end of it!

thanks again for reading :)
