Run/walk/swim 1000 km/miles in 2020

[thenewaveragebear1983]

After doing this successfully now for 2 years I thought I'd start the 2020 thread

All welcome

My headphones ran out of battery 50m in today. So I had to listen to my annoying brain instead. I also discovered that pop tarts don't provide sufficient fuel for running and it rained. Still, I did it.

Anyway 7 miles walked yesterday with a friend and 7 miles run today.
145/855

Only 12 miles this week: 9.5 walked, 1.5 cycled, 1 rowed. Two steps forward, one back with the PGP recovery.
1971 to go.

49/1971

152 miles done. 1868 left

27.13 miles of walking done this week, I was hoping to get onto the treadmill but it needs to be oiled and needs a new safety cable before I feel happy using it.

104.83/1895.17

Cold 5k run

93/907

Usual 5km walk/jog/clomp through claggy mud

146.7/1853.3

Cut my planned long run short due to calf pain but ended up having a reverse Tri day with 5km run, 12km bike trainer, 1km swim instead.

Running 110km

Standard Tuesday 10k done. Need to up my game this weekend!

125/1600 done

12 km today with a gruelling 6km uphill 2nd half. Very odd to be running in sleeveless vest in January

89/911

I'd like to hit 100 by the end of Jan. that would be 60km more than December but still only 2/3 what I was averaging last year. My leg is improving but not pain free yet so trying not to overdo it. Building up to 15km race in March and half marathon in May.

My dog did his rapid reverse away from the door this morning when I tried to let him out to widdle. Can't say I blame him...no way am I walking today. Hope those of you venturing out haven't got the same weather as me (cold, rainy and windy)

@ErrolTheDragon ooooh no, here in the midlands the sky is crisp blue and the sun is shining. It's like spring!

Rower instead - I suppose it's good to have to do something different with a bit of upper body.

151.7/1848.3

15 km of which rower.

Take it easy Bear.

A lovely 6.5 mile run under cold blue skies today, but the wind chill was pretty nippy and it took me a while to find my rhythm.

4 miles walked yesterday.

154.5/845.5

5km

94/ 906

A bit of a struggle in the middle of my 10K today thanks to dome red wine last night!

103/897

Quick lunchtime cycle 9.3km as resting my calf from running at mo. Lovely sun popped out after cold frosty start.

Planning to do a quick lunch time run as I had a lunch break today! Started changing and realised I'd left my running bra on the line and I cannot run without it (I'd blind myself!)

I'll run home from work tomorrow which will take me up to 65-67km for the month depending which route I take. Not amazing but 50km better than last January!

Today for various reasons was a washout, by the time I was able to go out it was back to cold, wet and rainy. Just about managed to close the exercise ring on my watch with various indoor stuff (a Tabata set fits easily into the time it takes to steam the veg) but will miss the move goal. Still, I'd managed it for a whole 4 weeks which is better than I'd expected in January.

5.9 km dog walk

157.6/1842.4

Joined a weekly running group this morning. 6k of sprints and hills!

109/891k

Lunch time km swim

Running 110km
Swimming 6km
Cycling 66.3km

Pissing down this morning, not enough time for usual walk and the towpath will be a quagmire. So just 3 km along the road - glad I turned back as after a brisk 2km my ankle started hurting, was ok at an unforced pace.
Every little helps.

Family ParkRun today, perfect morning for it. My my eldest knocked a min off her PB running with DH and DD2 talked the whole way round run/walk with her friend it was good for me to be slower and ease my sore calf back into movement. I’m hoping a sports massage on Monday will mean I can still do my Half next weekend 🤞
