Welcome all to the 2022 distance challenge thread!

Any form of self-powered movement which you can log distance for; any distance in whatever units you like for your own personal challenge!

I really thought I'd posted earlier but I must not of pressed post.
Not so much walking this week but a bit more running. Managing to run 5k now. Hoping that my distance will keep going up.
70.2km walking
23.9km running
94.1/2022km

Checking in for the benefit of any lurkers who aren't managing quite so well as some of the fab efforts here!

I'm on 25k total - mostly walks, as haven't managed much running yet. Last week was a busy one with work.

A few runs and maybe a cycle this weekend will hopefully get me back on track for the 1000k

Tarahumara · 17/01/2022 09:27

Last week was a write-off for me - I had a cough / cold (not Covid), felt rubbish all week and did not do any exercise at all. Finally starting to feel better, so will get back on it this week!

ErrolTheDragon · 17/01/2022 10:22

Weeks (sometimes longer) like that happen, don't they - especially at this time of year. I was wiped out at the end of last year by a nasty cold and the weather.
And kudos to all of you who manage anything at all alongside work and/or family commitments! I'm 61, DD grown up, and work part time (from home, have since 1995) so I'm far less constrained than many of you.

Yes! It's frustrating as I'd made a good start to the year. But these things happen!

Jumbojem · 20/01/2022 07:43

Just checking in. Don't know exact stats as phone charging but a better weekend/week for me as work is less busy.
Have got a good pattern of runs Sat, Tue, Thurs, and trying to do a walk, however short, on the other days. Walks are mainly lunch time due to light and I'm bored of the options locally and no transport or time to go elsewhere during the day. Will be going to office a bit in coming weeks which does give option for wider walk options.

IsThisNameTaken · 20/01/2022 15:46

Sunny but cold 12.6km run this morning.
TTD 77km

ErrolTheDragon · 21/01/2022 18:35

Today, marking a probably overdue 'normal life resumes' for me, I went out to lunch with some friends - inside rather than outside a cafe.ShockGrin And jolly nice it was too. So no walk, but I've just hauled myself out to the garage for 5km on the rower.

151.3km walked.
20km rowed

Justmeandmines · 23/01/2022 13:59

34.6 km running
135.5/2022

ErrolTheDragon · 23/01/2022 15:37

Well done everyone!

We went to a nearby town and walked around it and a couple of its parks for a change - it was a bit grey and dull for the coast or countryside in DH's opinion. Met some great dogs including a tiny dachshund even order than mine (who is nearly 16), toddling along but then later enjoying the scents from his pram.Grin
11.7 km

172.4 km walked.

Two runs to add - 7.6 and 6.2 - TTD 90.8km. On track for minimum of 100km per month (for January at least!)

UnaOfStormhold · 24/01/2022 11:57

77 miles run so far, which means I should make it to 100 miles in January which will be a great start for the year. Last year I think I would have managed 1000 miles if it hadn't been for a few weeks off here and there, so having a bit of a buffer feels prudent.
