Might as well start a new thread. All welcome regardless of your goals, just keep moving. Everything counts towards your totals. It's amazing what you can accomplish in a year, how far you can go and all the things you see en route.

Hope you all feel better soon tiz we had whole family 4-5wks of that horrid cold all through end Sept/Oct that just wouldn’t go. Now dodging the dreaded covid now as both kids had close contact but so far negative LF 🤞 it all feels abit endless at the Mo. Hoping to get a pool swim in at lunchtime today before kids break up.

ErrolTheDragon · 22/10/2021 10:32

We've managed to stay free of lurgies since the start of last year - no school aged kids. When dd was in preschool & ks1 I'd routinely spend months with a horrible cough... grim. Hope you all feel better soon.Thanks

Sunny day yesterday, we took the old dog to some nice gardens. He did pretty well, including a bit in the deer park which he gamely explored - he still likes somewhere new. But it was cool enough to leave him in the car for a while so we got in an out 8km in all.

7.7 km in a local nature reserve today. We'd planned a longer walk but fortunately checked the traffic before setting off up the motorway, it was jammed due to a crash.

8.7 km along the river - mostly a path on the other side we've not done before, but we couldn't go as far along it as we've planned. It's meant to be a quite long distance path but there was an impassable channel. It's a classic glacial u-shaped valley with meandering (though fast-flowing ) river.

Sounds like an interesting walk errol, we’ve had torrential rain & localised flooding this week with rivers bursting banks & soggy footpaths.
Had a Saturday morning plod run & dip in an angry brown sea.

Still here, this thread dropped off my "I'm on," threads so I'd forgotten about it. I'm still doing the longer rides too. I can do a 125 mile ride from my house with only one traffic light on it through the Wicklow mountains (If I start on the other side of the traffic light there are none at all on the route). The Wicklow mountains are beautiful at the time of year.
