As the first thread is on 998 I thought I’d better make a new one before adding today’s mileage!

Cycled down for a bumpy sea swim this morning and then lucked out at lunchtime getting a lane swim session as someone else had cancelled. Have one more pool swim booked Tuesday then I’m guessing that will be it for a few weeks again Sad I’m lucky I can hopefully keep sea swimming

I was on the previous thread, different name- been plagued with various issues this year (knee injury, then virus, then stress fracture) but I keep coming back fighting!

803.5/196.5km (running)

I have a small chance...

Sorry you've been in the wars. Well, whatever you manage this year will definitely still be an achievement with all that!

20.06 miles of walking done this week. Not great by a long shot but I'm plodding away!

Same @TriSeaSwim99 back to the lakes twice a week again!!

ErrolTheDragon · 04/11/2020 13:41

Brilliant sunshine today here; 7.3km

Which brings me to 1502.3.

I didn't declare a target at the start of this, but guessed it would be somewhere more than 1K km and less than 2K km. So having got to 1.5K km I guess my goal may now be a thousand miles.

Your doing brilliantly errol I didn’t really set a run target this year after last years 1000k this year is looking more like 500k after a series of injury issues but I’ve enjoyed swimming and cross training more instead Smile lovely sea swim this morning super cold air temp 1c but blue sky sunrise just made everyone smile.

Lovely again here today - we got out early to be sure of one of the lay-by spaces, started walking with the mist clearing. 9.6km, 1511.9

Yep our normally “see no one dog walk” route was busy today with cars parked along the roadside.. I cycled down for a brief seaswim to clear my head this morning as well.

We're planning on mainly walking in the week and doing our chores at the weekend. We're very fortunate not to be tied to standard working hours - I only work half time, with almost entirely flexible hours.

Did an hour of yoga and hitt today as couldn’t face a grey run with rain this morning. Plus walked the pup so nothing to add to the totals but had nearly 2hrs of exercise with the school run as well
