Hi 👋

5.6km
217/783

Feel like I'm slipping a bit and need to try and get back in track over Easter

thenewaveragebear1983 · 23/03/2018 14:55

10 km (first time ever!! Yay!)

189/811

atomicnotsoblonde · 24/03/2018 08:51

Wow well done! I'm adding 5.2 from yesterday. I've got a cold so finding it hard this week, but will have a try later today; something will be better than nothing!

222.2/777.8 to go

stegosauruslady · 24/03/2018 09:28

thenewaveragebear1983 Well done!

SkiGirl007 · 24/03/2018 11:26

Well done bear1983 that’s brill.

Had to have 4d off with mild cold and felt pants, I SO need exercise for my mental health. Still not running due to impact injury but found rowing and swimming mostly OK Smile so rowed 6k in gym today, and 15min on sit bike with a swim after all low impact so hoping joint not aggravated as I’m really missing my running!!

Running 168k,
Rowing 11k,
Cycling 52k
Swimming 12.5 = total 248.5k

LoveVelo · 24/03/2018 11:50

Not updated for ages and its great to hear how you're all doing, and really good to see that OP is back !
Had nearly three weeks off due to injury so not much running mileage to add. (Managed a couple of bike rides at 30 miles each, but will keep that separate as in the 2018 miles in 2018 strava club.)
Have only managed 5 runs since last update and will go by my strava year to date run distance which is 204, so just 796 to go - best get cracking!

atomicnotsoblonde · 24/03/2018 17:27

Well done all 👋

Glad to see you back from the bench love

Forced myself today, but I've got a bit of a cold (asthmatic) so it hurt my lungs and I'm feeling it now!

5.6km
227.8/772.2

thenewaveragebear1983 · 25/03/2018 11:23

6km (and first run off the treadmill and in the fresh air!)

195/805

stegosauruslady · 25/03/2018 13:05

234 for me after my half this morning. Managed a massive PB of (almost!) ten minutes!

LoveVelo · 26/03/2018 08:50

Congrats on your half stego - and your pb!
Hope everyone's niggles and injuries are getting better.
Cycling last weekend (30 miles) so no running to update but weather wise, it's gorgeous here today so will definitely get out today.

SkiGirl007 · 26/03/2018 17:22

Nice 48k ride on the bike today

Running 168k,
Rowing 11k,
Cycling 100k
Swimming 12.5 = total 296k

thenewaveragebear1983 · 26/03/2018 18:02

4km for me today- my new trainers have given me a blister, so annoyingly it was that that stopped me doing further.

199/801

LoveVelo · 27/03/2018 19:10

Bike for me as well yesterday skigirl007, was lovely - no headwinds for a change!
Hope your blister is healing bear, used to give me trouble until I just sized up and went from 5 or 5.5 to a 6 with merino socks and rarely get them now. (Adidas Boost fan, best trainers for me after trying Asics and Saucony)
6.3 mile run today so 210.3/ 789.7 to go.

Tiredemma · 27/03/2018 20:39

893.4/1000

238, 4 slow and painful recovery miles!

I'm going in to a base building phase now, plan is to build up to 50 mile weeks!

BitOutOfPractice · 28/03/2018 14:54

Another run today 180/750 - back on track!

SkiGirl007 · 28/03/2018 21:08

Foot Injury still means no real running impact for me So was in gym tonight and rowed 7k plus bit of cycling.
Running 168k,
Rowing 18k,
Cycling 105k
Swimming 12.5 = total 308k

Tiredemma · 28/03/2018 21:13

I'm not close! I'm working backwards lol

OP posts:
SkiGirl007 · 29/03/2018 07:51

Ops just realised I’ve over added or miscounted 5k there somewhere 😂I’ll check Strava later Grin

thenewaveragebear1983 · 30/03/2018 14:49

Did 5k yesterday

I’ve lost track somewhere along the lines, because I know I’ve run 40 in jan, 70 in Feb, and yesterday’s took me to 100 in March.... so my totals must be

210/ 790

thenewaveragebear1983 · 30/03/2018 17:23

And 10k today, (plus took about 40 seconds off my best time!)

220/780

stegosauruslady · 30/03/2018 17:38

241, 3 trail miles as I'm staying at my dad's house in the middle of nowhere for Easter!

Super super muddy and rainy, but trails are such a treat!
