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

8 yesterday, 14.6 today.
DH is very good at finding different loops around a very nice area quite near us. I really should look at the map more to see how it all fits together but quite like suddenly finding myself somewhere that I'd not realised was so near another part.

1302.2

11 km today, to the 'magical circle' mentioned upthread. It was enhanced by the presence of a hare. I'm not so sure about what I assume to be an offering in honour of the recent equinox by the central stone - a small pile of bones (probably sheep) and one square of milk chocolate.

Sounds ermmm interesting errol!

Cycled down for a sea swim this morning lovely and calm after a super windy weekend but it’s noticeable colder still managed a non-wetsuit 500m. Going to run out of space soon on this thread I think, I’m looking on my phone but we are at 39pages.

6k this morning. Loving the cooler weather

666/334

I am up to 759km of running.

Also swim a mile once or twice a week but haven't included that....

This will be post 958 so there's still a little space left.

Managed 21.98 miles of walking this week!

1116.33/883.67

Well done, amysaurus! Is your DS on the mend?

12km, 1325.2

7k this morning

673/327

September update:

140km this month (averaging 4.66 a day)

Total: 1093 km (3.98/day)

To hit 1000 miles I'd need to do 500+ km in 3 months which is not impossible but is certainly unlikely. 1450 may be more likely!

So September is quite a lot above average. I'm feeling good though, I've made some really good improvements to my diet and coming up for 11 weeks of that now, so it's really starting to show in my running/ recovery.

Signed up for 3 runs this autumn; local 10km, virtual half marathon, and an endurance challenge 12 miles (1 mile on the hour every hour for 12 hours)

Updating after a couple of lovely sea swims, inc a nearly full moon bob with some other crazy ladies last night. A 5km run (still struggling with my hip), and 1km rowing to warm up after the cold 6c swim this morn.
Nice see your update bear and great walking amy.

@ErrolTheDragon yeah hes all on the mend, hes been back at nursery as all the spots scabbed up over the weekend.

He keeps telling me that his spots are falling off 🥰

Hoping to get a decent mile count in this week, and I do love a crisp autumn walk!

I do miss sea swimming. I grew up in a seaside town, but now live somewhere where the nearest beaches are rubbish for it. Still, there's much more good walking here.
5.3 today, 1330.5

10.2, 1340.7.

Bad weather forecasts for a while now, I may have to try to get back into using the rower as an alternative.

The forecast is grim isn't it? Literally rain rain rain for 10 days

We’ve had heavy rain most of the day in SW, so just did 20mins on rowing machine, glutes were feeling it by the end even though I was watching tv at the time. Can have chips for tea now.

I would rather run in the rain than the heat any day. Though I don’t like when there are lots of wet leaves on the path.

679/321

Weather as forecast, so I did 5km on the rower. Having not used it since spring, my shoulders know I've done it.
1345.7

Weather much better than forecast. 7.3km

Lovely cool 5k this morning.

684/316

Walk with puppy to drop car into MOT garage this morning, with a hitt session and 4K on the rowing machine. Missing my Monday seaswim but conditions not good following all the heavy rain too much pollution run off. Fair bit of walking over weekend but no more running I’ve really lost my run mojo with a niggly hip. This time last year I’d run twice as far

Just realised I added on my previous swim in error so corrected totals and had forgotten a run.

And more better than forecast weather (clouding over now). Not the walk we'd planned because the motorway was blocked and the alternative A road fouled up as a consequence but we got lucky with parking for another favourite walk.
