I just run my first half marathon. It took 2hr which was 15minutes slower than I did 13miles in training 2 weeks before. Naturally I was disapointed, but I put it down to the fact it was all on concrete (I have never run on concrete before

Apparently, if you run on concrete(the road) then it effects your insides when you get older. This might just be for women or men and women but i was just wondering if anyone else had heard about this?L8n heard about joint problems with to much
