After doing this in 2018 a new thread for new folk to join the 2019 challenge. Pick your target, log your miles and see what you can achieve whilst encouraging each other Smile Anyone want to join me?

I ran a slow 4 miles earlier in the week then park run this morning. I'm trying to run 3 times a week even when I'm busy - like this week - so I need to get out again tomorrow. 11 km to add so far

26/1000 km running

Can I chip in I am C25K-ing again, but on the cross trainer, with the goal to convert to my bike in the better weather

I have started this so many times and then something gets in the way and I feel that it is not worth carrying on Hmm ....anyway I am as fat as butter and if I want to continue eating things I have to burn it off quicker! So half an hour ish every day bar sundays, just because.

I have been logging the distances on the cross trainer, does anyone know how accurate they are??

so far I have totted up 91k (22 on the fri/sat and 69 this week) so I am pleased with that!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 12/01/2019 10:54

14.5k this morning
58/ 942

Smashed my 5km Pb for the second time this year, 26.59 and my 10k Pb 57.34. Could this be the effect of dry January I wonder??

I've done 10k of running, 7k of walking and 22k of cycling since Sunday.

I think I might split my cycling out, else I'll hit my target really quickly.

Sounds like a year from hell atomicblonde I seriously hope 2019 is better for you.

I’ve not run since Sat due to horrid virus Sad hopefully I’ll be able to venture out of the weekend as only managed a short walk yesterday. My 1000k goal was worked out over 48wks at 21k a week so hopefully next week I can get back on it.

Can I join again? I abandoned last year's attempt mid divorce, full time working single mom of two, having had skin cancer and being in a car accident!!!

So.... this year I've a more realistic target of 650km. I've done 17 so far...

Hi everyone- well I’m 12 miles down on my 1000 running. Would have been more but went to gym on Friday and couldn’t move for the whole weekend Grin
My plan is running the dog rather than walking her.
