I managed do run 10km yesterday for the first time in years. It nearly killed me and my knees may never recover but I did it.

36 km walked last week, but again, I was rubbish at tracking.
The challenge this week is to exercise 5 days. Ang go for a couple of runs before Parkrun.

42.77 miles of walking done this week.

208.71/791.29

17 miles a week will see me hit the 1000 miles target. I think I'm going to up my target, I'll see where I am by the end of March and go from there!

Half Marathon done yah!!! Brutal headwind (twice as 2laps), ankle deep multiple muddy puddles and rain showers sideways but smashed my time goal Smile very glad I have a sports massage booked tom though!

Swam 800m tonight as saving my legs for Sunday’s half but I’m itching to run. Volunteering at ParkRun instead tom.

Aiming for 3000 miles this year on the bike. Managed 253 miles in Jan and got my place in RideLondon today so hoping training for that will seriously help me up the distance. Have a few centuries planned this year.

Windy 5.5k at lunchtime. Prob my last run now before a half on Sunday, getting nervous now as it looks like it will be windy which I hate!

34.37 miles of walking done this week, it would have been more, but once again we had a fair bit of snow so it meant I couldn't really get out.

165.94/834.06

I'm pretty happy that I walked 148 miles in January, if I can maintain that for the rest of the year, then I'm hoping I can walk 1500 miles!

8FencingWire · 03/02/2019 21:57

31km walked apparently, but I forgot my fitbit at home 2 days this week.

Freshprincess · 03/02/2019 19:08

Terrible week for me, just 9 miles.

Roads too icy for runs with my club and all park runs close by cancelled.
99 miles for the year - so just on target. Hopefully it will warm up and i can get out more next week.

Did 8.5km this afternoon out on the downs. It was snowing and miserable. I ended up soaked through. Think I've done 114km this year so far.
