13 degrees in Dublin today and I was melting in a long sleeve top and leggings.

A bit of Jorge here...not too bad but why if we have to have Spanish weather does it have to be this?
5km rowed.

Whoohoo did ParkRun +2k run from car. We had 30-40mph head winds with sand blasting, then the hail started then the sun and a rainbow came out it was ...refreshing Grin but lovely to be running even if I did have to walk a-bit as foot cramped up. Going to ice it now as think it’s going to be slow recovery, I’m just happy I’m running something!
Jan ran 110km
Feb ran 31km let’s hope March is better!

Running 141km
Swimming 8km
Cycling 115km

Well done! It sounded like you were getting cabin fever before.

Our day didn't quite go to plan, we went to an RSPB reserve but the paths were flooded beyond the depth of walking boots. But plenty of other paths nearby a bit higher up and quite sunny, very pleasant.

9 mile run today. I was going to push it further, but I was feeling a bit sore in places and after surveying the sea of mud ahead turned round and went the other way.

We stuck to a park today, even that had a couple of flooded paths.

Let's hope the weather settles down in March - the forecast isn't looking too bad for next week at the moment, do you have anything longer range OYBBK?

Not been on in a few weeks, little one has been under the weather with bug after bug and hes not been sleeping either!

61.99 miles of walking done in the last 2 weeks, which all things considered I'm happy with!

TriSkiRun99 · 03/03/2020 20:58

Oh no that’s crap amy the year between 1-2yr is such hard work for illness it feels never ending when your trying to work as well. Hope it passes quickly.

Turbo trainer in shed just 25mins before tea and a walk this morning. Start a new CrossFit class tomorrow feel very nervous as I don’t “do classes” normally just prefer my own exercise space.

I forgot to post at the end of Feb so here's as at today!

Swim 12.5miles (22km)
Bike 340miles (545km)
Run 87miles (141km)

I started out aiming for 2,000 miles so well on track with 439.5 - may need to increase my target!!!

I think I've also walked around 40 miles but I don't always remember to set my tracker off for walks so it's probably higher.

I'm starting to get cabin fever a bit using the turbo so DH is helping me take the bike off it tonight so that I can go for a "proper" ride at the weekend Grin

ErrolTheDragon · 05/03/2020 17:33

8.1 / 347.9 km

Inniu · 06/03/2020 18:44

5k of hills and steps with my group today
