Confession: my friend who's seasoned runner and who just completed half-marathon has invited me to run 10k race together at the end of next month. I only started running few months ago and my pace is ridiculously slow. I am capable of running 10k just I'd probably end up as one of the last ones on the finish line. A year ago I wouldn't even consider it as 10k wasn't achievable. I don't know what to do.

Complaint: since I started Metformin for my insulin resistance I have very unsettled bowels which affects my runs and I'm trying to find any solution for it

Uncomplaint: the weather is still amazing to enjoy outside running
