Run / Walk / Swim / Cycle 1000km / miles in 2021 here we go again!

[TriSeaSwim99]

Third year for me aiming to be as active as possible most days. So join me in setting a goal and keeping on track by logging on here . I’ve set a 500mile run target this year to be realistic as I’ve nursed foot issues most of 2021 which really curtailed my running miles but sea swimming and trail running have developed into my passions. What’s your challenge this year?

@drspouse Only within the 5km. We can't leave the 5km for exercise. You can travel to work, food shopping, care of vulnerable people etc. Some people are still taking the piss but I'm content enough to stay within the boundary. It means I have to be more creative.

Ah I understand Long.
I also massively overdressed for my 3k walk...

Another 5k for me today, the sun shone when I headed out but then started a torrential rain!!! I was woefully underdressed, an approaching runner clearly pitied me in my soaked crop top and steamed up glasses and actually saluted me😂😂😂

I’ve hit 250km!

Scorchio! The rain that started in the last km was quite welcome. Another 5km done. I think about the same pace as last time but not sure as my tracker says I did 5.1 km and my pace was 0.0 km/h!

Rainy 10km run today - not particularly fun but I wore shorts so less overheated which was good.

378.9km/2021km

Weather looks argh tomorrow -would love to get on the treadmill but not sure puppy will tolerate it. Will see - as long as I get some sort of run in, even if short, that’ll be a win.

Morning all, managed to get a few walks in this week and covered 15km so total is now 65km. My shin managed the several shorter walks ok so planning to do a bit more over the next week.
I also rode 25km on horseback but we won't count that seen as the horse did most of the work

Well done, Forest, glad you're easing back into walking.

Lovely day here, we found a footpath on a farm track with a good surface we'd not explored before, and got sufficient pace that for a while I shed my coat and was in short sleeves!

260.5 walked
30 rowed

Another 5km done for me 255km down☺️

20 easy km early this morning on the turbo with cadence drills. Despite having fed the cats, they proceeded to grumble at me for 30 minutes until DH came down. One of them even pulled the oven gloves down in a fit of pique!

How dare you enjoy yourself without them Long!

Bike ride today, not quite 4k but I haven't been on the bike in weeks because it's been so icy.

One of them even pulled the oven gloves down in a fit of pique!

That'll teach you!

I too laughed at the oven gloves..it’s like puppy has developed the habitat of tapping the back door if we are all ignoring her. But if we get up to let her out she just walks away like yeah whatever then repeats again & again the tap at the door my DD shoved her bum out third time and she was most indignant as it was raining

Short 4.5km tonight got a few niggles after the HM so cut it short and walk a couple of parts. Really don’t want a repeat of last January so taking it easy on the running this week I think.

Oh I’m named changed

Said cat is an absolute arse when he wants to be one. He's very demanding and is a total drama queen if you don't do what he wants immediately. Here he is "helping to put away the shopping".

I hope there's some cat food in there.

Miiilllkk....

Next time the cats are staking out my turbo session I'll take a photo.

He doesn't particularly like milk but is partial to some extra mature cheddar.

@TheLongRider that picture😂😂😂 🐈‍⬛

Lovely morning, 7.3 km

267.8 walked
30 rowed

Approx 3k walking round town on a Treasure Trail with the DCs. It's a cold day and it's quite a long trail and some parts are a bit confusing so we only did 5 out of 20 clues but we did have bacon rolls as well!

11km today - new 5km PB and 2nd fastest 10km time. Really pleased - I’ve been lacking sleep and had a couple of deliberately easy runs which really paid off today.

Hopefully another 10km tomorrow, and then a longer run at the weekend - 15-18km.

Now 12 weeks until my half marathon - we’ll just under - so things need to start ramping up a bit!

Just back from 12k walk along the canal with DH & DD. Saw a sparrowhawk, some goosanders, & a couple of moorhens.

I did my first run since Saturday today. I had been feeling bad with a rotten sinus headache for day. I eventually threw out the lovely cut hyacinths I had in the kitchen and the headache went.

22 km of dog walking over the last few days and a 7k run today.

Congrats on the PB Lalaland.

Quick nip down for a seaswim which was more of a face slap jump around in choppy low tide waters but still energising.

Well done on the PB lala
