Attempting to take up #running so of course getting flooded with running content on the algorithmic side of the internet. Here’s some things I’ve learned so far
- Apparently not having enough big toe strength is a problem
- there is a staggering variety of expensive specialised socks
- people have complex feelings about non-complex carbs
- some people have very strong feelings about how major marathons ballots work
- turns out I’ve been lacing my shoes suboptimally
- there’s organised squads who’ll investigate and shame you if you misrepresent your marathon time on social media
- dorky looking running vests are cool
- there is allegedly such a thing as runs that are easy and fun

@joannaholman@aus.social I wish you all the best in getting into running. Just do it your way and don't let anyone tell you that you're doing it wrong. If you ever need help with anything #running tag here has been a very welcoming at least iny experience. Best of luck!
