8km today

866.5/ 133.5

Skigirl sorry to hear you’re unwell. There’s a lot of those Noro type bugs doing the rounds at the moment. Hope you feel better soon

We’re off on holiday tomorrow, and I’m determined to rest a bit while we’re away. I’ve been doing long distances and running 6 days a week recently and I think I need just a few days of rest. So I’m thinking maybe a quick 5 every other day just to keep my fitness up, but no 13km hilly gruellers....

atomicnotsoblonde · 03/08/2018 19:26

5.8/356.2 so far behind!

I've no hope but am keeping in going and seeing what I can achieve Smile

SkiGirl007 · 04/08/2018 12:07

Hope you enjoy your hols bear and rest days. I always seem to run faster after couple of rest days.

atomic keep glowing your doing well. I did 500k last year and this year I should hit 500k by the end of Aug if I can shake this flipping virus off. So even though I’m frustrated I have to remind myself how much further and stronger I’m running compared to last year Smile even though I’m unlikely to hit 1000k at my current rate I will exceed 750k fingersXed Smile

Going not glowing Grin

thenewaveragebear1983 · 05/08/2018 08:44

I ignored my own advice and did 8km this morning, and it was hilly and gruelling as well! Grin

amysaurus87 · 06/08/2018 06:38

25.23 done this week, not sure how as I've hurt my foot. Total so far is 367.94 with 632.06 left to do.

Really going to have to step it up to reach 1000 miles by the end of the year

SkiGirl007 · 06/08/2018 14:51

Still struggling with energy levels post virus but dragged my legs around 5k early before DH went off to work. After 7d of zero exercise I thought it might have felt better than it didHmm

Thanks Ski I've often glowing bright red and about to die

I've got my numbers wrong somewhere, but managed 6km yesterday. I'll record my runtastic total as this is correct.

6km/362.2 - now no aim other than to beat my friend who is also tracking runs. We're chasing each other's tails, but I'm away this week so will need to get on it when I'm home!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 08/08/2018 08:45

5.5 this morning, and smashed my PB (5km in 21 mins)

My plan to not run every day, not do hills, and not push myself too hard and just do nice leisurely jogs is working out really well Hmm
The town we’re staying in is like a runner’s playground, loads of twisty roads, hills, steps, alleyways. I love it!

SkiGirl007 · 08/08/2018 20:13
