Off on a 3 day cruise today so may not be running until Monday although I am optimistically taking my running gear as apparently you can run round the deck in the mornings!

35.25 miles this week! That's my best for a while probably the only upside to a baby that needs a 45 minute walk to have a nap!

593.72/406.28

Need to average 31 miles a week to hit 1000 miles by the end of the year, I think it doable...

SkiGirl007 · 30/09/2018 21:40

Actually I’ve run 20k this month which is more than I thought I had if my Strava is correct Smile my aim is 40k in October 2x5k a week to build strength and stamina again. FingersXed my back behaves!

SkiGirl007 · 30/09/2018 21:36

Stats looking good bear my running ones are rather Sad fed up of my back pain. Hoping to test out a 5k tom as cold is easing now. I’ve signed up for a mid Feb HM but it’s going to be hard to get back to my running fitness of a few months ago I fear.

Well done Amy.

Today is the first day this year that I am choosing not to run because I am ill (ie not a rest day or run-related injury!). Considering I’ve always been very prone to cough/throat/colds that’s a real bonus of running that I didn’t expect, but hopefully will feel better tomorrow to make the most of what looks to be a lovely week.

amysaurus87 · 24/09/2018 04:48

24.36 miles of walking done this week, not my best but the weather has been shocking so I've swapped walking for sofa snuggles!

558.47/458.47

Going to try and step it up this week.
