Been unwell so been taking it easy. I did a gentle 2 mile walk today to get myself out of bed and get some fresh air - it wasn’t lovelly. I am hoping to kick off this awful cold and get back to normal next week!

2/1000

LtGreggs · 02/01/2019 18:23

Slow, short run working on getting my bad ankle strengthened.

First run of the year done. Only 7.9km and painfully slow but it's a start Grin

7.9/1000

8FencingWire · 02/01/2019 19:14

Another 2.5 km today. No run because I can barely breathe just walking for the moment. 7.5/1000 km.

Tsotofamily · 02/01/2019 19:25

1.5 mile walk for me today.
Went out and brought new running trainers today [eek] so hopefully I'll be able to add that to my goals as well this year.

4.7/995.30

SkiMum99 · 02/01/2019 19:25

5k tonight to escape a day with kids driving each other mad.

I’m in for 1000km running! A few weeks into C25k so hopefully I’ll be running longer distances in no time :)

Another 2 mile run walk this morning. 4/500

thenewaveragebear1983 · 04/01/2019 12:28

13km this morning, it was grim. I don't know why but I'm really struggling to get myself going at the moment, every step was a chore!

26/ 974

OhYouBadBadKitten · 04/01/2019 13:06

It's hard to get going after Christmas and just generally at this time of year. And if you are a bear you are supposed to be hibernating at the moment Wink

7km walk. The sunshine was a boost.

41/959

8FencingWire · 04/01/2019 13:59

1km swimming and 3km run so far today.
15/1000

SkiMum99 · 04/01/2019 14:34

Be kind to yourself bear you are doing a lot of running and the grey weather doesn’t help anyone’s motivation Smile

Chilly 5k at lunchtime brrr had goosebumps for first mile despite two long sleeved layers and headband. I do like running in the cool air though.

Total: 15k.
