As the first thread is on 998 I thought I’d better make a new one before adding today’s mileage!

Your doing brilliantly errol I didn’t really set a run target this year after last years 1000k this year is looking more like 500k after a series of injury issues but I’ve enjoyed swimming and cross training more instead Smile lovely sea swim this morning super cold air temp 1c but blue sky sunrise just made everyone smile.

Brilliant sunshine today here; 7.3km

Which brings me to 1502.3.

I didn't declare a target at the start of this, but guessed it would be somewhere more than 1K km and less than 2K km. So having got to 1.5K km I guess my goal may now be a thousand miles.

20.06 miles of walking done this week. Not great by a long shot but I'm plodding away!

Sorry you've been in the wars. Well, whatever you manage this year will definitely still be an achievement with all that!

I was on the previous thread, different name- been plagued with various issues this year (knee injury, then virus, then stress fracture) but I keep coming back fighting!

803.5/196.5km (running)

I have a small chance...

TriSeaSwim99 · 01/11/2020 21:21

Cycled down for a bumpy sea swim this morning and then lucked out at lunchtime getting a lane swim session as someone else had cancelled. Have one more pool swim booked Tuesday then I’m guessing that will be it for a few weeks again Sad I’m lucky I can hopefully keep sea swimming

Realised that I hadn’t done 10K in months so pushed myself to do that today because I have signed up for a charity one in a couple of weeks.
Was pleasantly surprised at 61 minutes. Not a PB but much better than I expected.

A bit late *

Inniu · 29/10/2020 21:38

Was a bit Llanelli running today and ended up doing a very dark unlit run along the river. A bit unsettling so I think my after dark running will be well lit from now on.
