Run/walk/swim 1000 km/miles in 2020 - the final stretch

[ErrolTheDragon]

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

7 this morning.

880/120

We got up early this morning and went a bit further afield (though still in our county) - 13.9 km.

Had a feeling ropey couple of days so not done much but lucky the covid test came back negative phew! (DD had just reached the end of her self-isolation with no symptoms so we were being extra cautious) So just cycled down for a windy SeaSwim dip at lunchtime to blow away the cobwebs it was cold and lovely

Flipping brutal 10k this morning jeez the rain/hail came in sideways with 30mph+ winds and tide over topping sea wall 😳id arranged to meet my parkrun buddy so I deliberately parked the car a couple of kms away to meet her and we set off to do parkrun. Then almighty storm hit flipping heck we got drenched and very cold but kept going then I had to run back to car & loop around to get 10k Yah!

This morning was sunny but we had stuff we needed to do. Then it rained; the forecast said it should be clearing by 2pm and dry till 4 so we set off.

It lied. Our coats are dripping on the rack and we only did 4km. Still, it woke us up a bit.

23.32 miles of walking this week.

1378.42/621.58

8.4 today, 1756.8km

I did it!

Running: 1008.2km
Walking: 2410.7km

I'm amazed I've managed it, despite many knee problems and a stress fracture.

I've reached 4.5 million steps, new goal of 5 million next year! Eek!

Had limited window of early childcare pre-sun rise, so had to choose between run or seaswim ..I chose seaswim as the only day this week that the wind had dropped was great to be bobbing around as the morning light spread over the hills. Then had lunchtime lane swim nice 1km.

Awesome totals, HapHap!

I'm loving reading everyone's updates, absolutely awesome going everyone who's hit their targets!!

Well done haphap whohooo sorry I missed that when I posted.

Did My longest run since January this morning in wind & rain 8m of smiling head space, followed by a cold leg bath to reduce injury inflammation. Hopefully legs/feet won’t be too achy later.

Well done on reaching your target Haphap.
I won’t reach 1000 this year but I am ok with that. As a beginner I am just glad I stuck with running when my running group, park runs and races were cancelled.

900/100

10km, 1766.8

I’m not going to run a 1000km either inniu this year as injuries niggled most of year so anything is a bonus. I’m amazed I’m still sea swimming I’ve logged 20 since the start of November having never swam in the UK winter before we had a fab one this morning but did feel like a ⛄️Afterwards with the northly wind brrrr

We got out for a walk, having decided not to bother with doing much xmassy today. 8.1 km, 1774,9

A couple of slow walks here with the dog as I’m really nursing my back as the puppy has pulled it out of alignment lots of ice/heat/ painkillers and yoga the last two days to try settle it back down. My fingers are tightly crossed as last time the discs bulged it took 6-9mths to re-settle after lots of treatment. Feels like I’ve been kicked in back where the bruising is arhhh at least I’ve had a fair bit of practice over the last 15yrs nursing it though so I’m hopeful I can keep moving this time.

What rotten luck.

Hello! I joined this thread at the beginning of the year. Posted a few times but when the world went last shaped with Covid I couldn't bear being in Mumsnet. Thanks to WFH/lockdown though I actually managed my goal of 1000km of running for this year. I think without Covid I would not have done so much running. I've also got my lazy teen into running 10ks. This is the positive side of the way things went this year!
I'm, perhaps rashly, setting myself a goal of 1000 miles running for next year.
I was also thankfully injury free this year. Congratulations to those of you who achieved your target. Commiserations to those who've sadly had injuries, I know that feeling (2019 was my miserable year).
Here's to 2021 and new goals!

Nice to have you back jumbojem and well done!
