[mrbob]

Another park run done but only going to count as 4 as I walked a bit. Really struggling with keto!
So 15/1000

[steppemum]

Oh I would love to do this!

I am walking (the dog) and I will aim for 1000 km, but try and get 1000m!

[JamAtkins]

8km today ( walking - I’m shite at running)

Total 19/1000

[SkiMum99]

ParkRun with the kids plus extra km to the carpark.

Total: 21k

[Tailrunner]

A very chilly parkrun completed this morning. We had a curry last night and I felt rubbish this morning so happy I managed to run the whole thing although it was quite slow.
15/1000 km running

[KickBishopBrennanUpTheArse]

First park run since pre-injury this morning. Did it in 30.23 which is 1 min 40 slower than this time last year. Not as bad as I thought. Something to build on but not impossible.

12.6/1000

Another 4km today - 17/1000

[Tiredemma]

15/1185

Went out with the intention of only doing 6.5k but plodded on for 10k! So pleased as this makes me more confident for my half marathon in March.

Well done everyone else on your distances

[Tsotofamily]

2.1 mile walk today

10.8/989.20

[8FencingWire]

I’ve done 12k walking yesterday. Shopping in the sales 😂. But at least half the distance was walking to and from town, so not all bad.
And I bought boots, all I could think was: these boots were made for walking 😂 in an attempt to make me feel like I’m actually doing some sort of exercise.
Went for a 4k run this morning, I’m waiting for the washing machine to finish and I’m going to the pool for 1km. And then into town again.

So, so far 32k/1000.

I’ll update tonight again, I’m aiming to get to 40k at the end of the first week.

I've printed out one of those 1000km trainer pictures and stuck it on the fridge for motivation. I didn't come close to this many last year so let's see!

[Freshprincess]

Am I too late to join?

1000 running miles for me. I was 70 short last year. Lost a bit of enthusiasm in the heat of summer and although I got back on track towards the end of the year, I was too far behind my monthly target to catch up.
I’m off out shortly for 6m run which will take me to 20 this week.
Would also like to do more ‘boots on’ walking miles, but not sure of my target yet.

[LtGreggs]

I did another short slow 3km yesterday and 4km today - managed about a km of normal pace in the middle of that and am sure that my ankle is definitely strengthening. So that's 13km this week, and I plan to build up by just 1 or 2km each week to ensure I don't do any more damage.

13/987 km

[sar302]

6.5 miles cycling today. Year to date:

Cycling -13 / 987 miles
Walking - 5 / 995 km

Need to pick up on the walking!

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

A slightly mad 30km walk today. But it was very enjoyable indeed and I'm only a little stiff so it's fine.

71/929

That will slow down a lot now I'm back to work. But maybe I should have set a higher target.

[BitOutOfPractice]

I'm starting the great plod

18 / 782

It seems very scary when I write that

[Submariner]

3 mile run walk today. Felt good!

7/500

[amysaurus87]

As I did in 2018 I'll update weekly!

27.21 miles of walking done this week (taking off Monday)

27.21/972.70

Might not do so well this week as we are finally moving house!!! Been waiting since before Christmas to move. As long as I can do 19 miles I'll be happy (19 miles is the weekly average needed to do 1000 miles)

[thenewaveragebear1983]

7.5km

Smashed my 5km Pb too, with 27.52 (previous was 28.22 at parkrun)

33.5/ 966.5

[aldgadgie]

Hi everyone- well I’m 12 miles down on my 1000 running. Would have been more but went to gym on Friday and couldn’t move for the whole weekend
My plan is running the dog rather than walking her.

[Tsotofamily]

3.3 mile walk today

14.1/985.9

[8FencingWire]

I finished the week with 34 km, I never did make it into town 🙄.
Today I walked 4km.
So 38/1000.
Updating weekly sounds like a good idea :)

[Autumnnymph]

8 km walk today - YTD 30/1000 kms.

[mrbob]
