My stats are all out for some reason but these are my September data. I think I've missed a few updates on here

Total for year: 1363.5 (average 5.01 per day so clinging to my target by a thread...)
Total for September 128.5 (4.28 per day)

I think September has just beaten August for performance, but only just. It's been 2 quite difficult months Tbh. I'm racing on Sunday and I'm determined to have a healthier October (hopefully not drinking and eating better than I have of late too)

Hope your race goes ok bear and the weather is ok...it’s wet & stormy here. I’ve optimistically laid out my running kit for tomorrow as I’ve only ran 2.5k in the last 3wks 🙈this virus utterly knocked me for six but finally feeling more human over the last 2days. I had a walk Sat and a small swim today with the kids. If I can run 7k tomorrow I will hit 25k for September...😂my lowest monthly total for the last 2years!

29.65 miles of walking done this week...knew it was not going to be as good as I wanted with all the rain we've had!

1425.89/74.11

thenewaveragebear1983 · 30/09/2019 09:49

My stats for September were out but so was my calendar! I forgot about today!

Today 5.5km (making 134 in sept)
And 1369 total

TriSkiRun99 · 30/09/2019 10:00

Yah I ran! A very slow 7.6k with a few walk breaks but nice to be back out even if my tummy didn’t think so. I’ll work out Sept stats later as I’m off to Pilates now Smile

Sept Stats
Swam 3.4km
Ran 28km
Cycled 56km includes a Triathlon Smile

My lowest monthly totals bit scary how much a virus can knock you out. Hopefully back in the game today even if I’m still coughing and youngest DD is still snotty & coughing 4wks now Sad it’s not enough to warrant her being off school but obviously just a low level virus she can’t shake & keeps re-infecting me. The good news was I reached a total 750km running which was my annual total for the two previous years so with a good wind I’m hopeful I’ll make 1000km by the end of the year.

Had a swim at lunchtime just about got to 800m but was still struggling with my energy. Frustratingly no chance to run this weekend as DH is away but plan to go out Monday.

Good luck bear is your run race today? Weather is perfect down South, my DH is doing a trail HM in near perfect conditions today. Alas I’m home looking after kids and can’t run 😩and weather tom looks awful so hoping he gets back in time for me to nip out later for a hour.

thenewaveragebear1983 · 06/10/2019 12:16

10km race today! Preliminary timings suggest 53 mins so I'm pretty chuffed with that!

TriSkiRun99 · 07/10/2019 10:42

Good luck hitting your target Amy.

Pleased with myself as weather was foul but car had to go to the garage so I made myself run from there & added on big loop in the wind & rain to get 10k in Smile still struggling a lot with pace so there were a couple of walk breaks but did it.

Ah that's a shame tri

I'm having a lovely few days without running. Annoyingly my foot hurt more today than it has for ages! I have s massage tomorrow for my aching hamstrings!

TriSkiRun99 · 10/10/2019 08:43

Hope your legs aren’t twitching bear & you are enjoying the rest time.
Had early 5k this morning but still slow grrr can’t find any pace at moment but also on period so that never helps.

thenewaveragebear1983 · 10/10/2019 11:24

I'm a little restless to be honest. I won't go out today because it's silly after paying all that money for a massage, but if it's a nice day tomorrow, I might head out for a quick trot round the block. Maybe. Most likely

TriSkiRun99 · 11/10/2019 16:42

Lunch break 1k swim today, pool was warmer than normal which made feel tired at least I hope it was that!

I didn't go out today, it was too rainy. I did a 30 minute hiit workout instead. Tomorrow is bootcamp, but then Sunday I am running. I can't wait, I feel like I'm in prison!!

TriSkiRun99 · 12/10/2019 10:14
