753/ 247

Well done bear I’d pencilled in doing 12k early sat morn but I’m now feeling under the weather with my daughters cold so not sure if I’ll summon the energy to exit my bed at 6am tom before the heat builds again.

Yes it’s forecast to be hot here again tomorrow. I left it a bit late today and it was too hot really, maybe I’ve just got used to nice cool 6am runs!

I usually love a cool 6am quiet run, but hubbie has been cycling to work as well and leaving the house at 6am so I’ve lost the “slot” as someone needs to be here when the kids wake up . I had nipped out after school run but by 9am it’s been 24c+ for weeks now and I hate running in that heat.

I’m up and going... see how far I get with niggly virus

12.5k nailed before 8am enjoyed it dropped my pace and felt abit forest gump just kept going...

Running 399.3k ...so close to 400

Awesome ski girl. I’ve only done 12km twice, it was a big jump from 10 to 12 and definitely was mental training as well as physical.

It was my longest run since Feb when I did my only HM to date but aggravated my toe joint and ended up not running for few weeks. I’ve been building back up steadily since. Would like to be back to HM in Oct, if my creaky joints allow yes a big part of it over 10k is fuelling and mentally keep going. I ran out of fuel today as I was running “fasted” but my body could of kept going if I’d eaten I think. It was such a boost to me believing I can get back to HM again.

6.3km/329.4

6 this morning

759/241

I’d like to be at 805 by the end of July (that will be 500 miles!) which is pretty doable.

Oh I'm feeling so dejected. I've not put a single km on the clock all week as I've had a really nasty chest infection

I was doing so well too

500m by the end of July would be awesome achievement bear

Hope you feel better soon bitout it’s crap when illness knocks you out but listen to your body it will tell you when your ready to run again.

My legs ache from yesterday’s run but I’m hoping I can go again Monday after school drop off.

21.54 miles of walking done this week! Steadily doing more but I know I can walk more, just need to push myself to get out in this hot weather!

279.41 done in total with 720.59 to go, which means I need to average about 30 miles a week if I want to make that target of 1000 miles!

6 km

765/235

A nice 10km this morning, in my new trainers- they make so much difference!

793/ 207

@thenew that's amazing! How on earth are you running in this weather? I struggle with the heat so much that even a short walk is huge effort and leaves me covered in sweat.

On the plus side I've done 23 miles already this week so I'm steadily doing more!

Amy I’m getting up at 6 in the week to run, and got up at 7 today. It’s the only way!

I’m doing race for life 5k tom with my two daughters (youngest is 6 ) but I’m dreading the heat predicted 24c I’m going to melt - I’ve done nothing all week floored by this head cold. Planning to walk/run/melt it youngest does parkrun around 40min mark so hopefully finish before noon!
