Thanks @ski and @thenewaverage I'm feeling pretty confident I can do it, today was a struggle with the weather as it's been so damn cold and rainy I didn't really want to go outside with my little one, but managed to get a few miles in today.

34.3 miles of walking done this week!

831.96/168.04

With 6 weeks to the end of the year I need 28 miles a week to hit the target. I think I might just be able to do this!

38.21 miles of walking done this week!! Very happy with that, I had loved to have hit 40 miles but the rain on Saturday kept us inside

797.66/202.34

With 7 weeks until the end of the year I now need 29 miles a week to hit the 1000 mile target, which is totally doable!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 11/11/2018 16:29

Managed 8km in the cold and rain with a stitch, before giving up

1372.5/ 127.5

thenewaveragebear1983 · 11/11/2018 11:57

Ski well done. I’m hoping to get out for my long run while Dh watches the football later, although I feel snotty and not really enthusiastic right now!

SkiMum99 · 11/11/2018 10:56

amysaurus87 · 08/11/2018 20:54

Thanks @ski and @thenewaverage I'm getting there slowly but surely!

This week should be a good one as I'm already on over 20 miles of walking in 4 days!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 06/11/2018 07:50

Well done Amy, you’re doing brilliantly! And you too skimum!

5.5 for me today, sane route as yesterday but 90 seconds faster (although I’m not hugely accurate with start/finish times!)

1347.5/ 152.5

SkiMum99 · 05/11/2018 13:19

Your on track amy for your target I’d have thought.

13k done this morn (8m), went after a new Pilates class so was warmed up but struggled a lot of it with pace, still pleased to have kept my training on track Smile
