A lot of your blood pressure has to do with genetics. See if anyone else in your family has high blood pressure.
Blood pressure is also affected by your diet. Do you eat a lot of veggies? How about salt and fat consumption?
Running for 2 hours a week isn't very much especially for that age.
Drinking lots of can help indirectly. You might see an increase in BP but once you pee it out it should help. Diuretics should lower your BP.
But in the end of the day, talk to a physician, and he should be able to best guide you.
