Half marathon is 2 weeks today so a week more training then a week of tapering.

Post holiday 6k run last night and swim, then ParkRun sandwich 10k.

@thenewaverage I like that idea! Maybe I was too hasty I'm upping my target 🤣 I need something big to aim for though!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 10/04/2019 12:34

8.5km today

515/ 485

Going away tomorrow, I'm taking my running gear but I'm not making any promises!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 09/04/2019 20:29

Amy to be fair I should have set a bigger target really, but I like the idea of smashing it early! Grin

amysaurus87 · 09/04/2019 19:50

ParkRun sandwich today and got PB on 5k and 10k Grin 🤸🏽‍♂️ Super pleased with that as been feeling under the weather last few days.
Turbo trainer is when you put the back wheel of your own bike onto a rolller and you can ride your bike like a static bike. Hubbie has a “smart” one which uses Bluetooth to hook up to cycling workouts online but I just pedal varying my pace whilst watching TV in our garden shed Smile. Useful bit of winter training kit if like my DH your into cycling plus I used it when on maternity leave and craving exercise whilst baby slept next to me in her buggy liking the white noise the bike made Grin

March stats: 176km/ 5.67 per day av
Annual total: 461 km/ 5.12 per day av

March has been my best month to date, distance wise. April probably not as I'll be tapering off towards the end, in prep for my half.

Today, 7.5km

468.5/ 531.5

36.21 miles of walking done this week. Not my best but I've been feeling very lazy and my little boy has been really struggling with the time difference coming home from holiday.

I signed up to the April race at your own pace challenge and I am aiming to walk 150 miles in April so my weekly distances need to get better!
