RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - Danster - 02-01-2024
Just back from my first 5km for months. Wasn't too bad, I could probably have done another km, but I want to go out again tomorrow so don't want to risk any soreness that might give me an excuse to say in.
Now for a 10 minute muscle workout before I start work.
RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - Danster - 02-01-2024
I'm going to track my miles and set some targets. I want to do a 100km month at some point soon, perhaps not February but hopefully March (April will be a struggle as I've got a week on holiday). And maybe even target a 1,000km year in 2024. Already a month down, but if I keep at it, by the end of the year I should find it easy to just bang out 10km runs to make bumper months more attainable.

Weather wise Jan and Feb are tough here. March can see improvement, at least in the second half of the month. April is all about the mud, in trail running... but at least its a lot warmer.

It was bright but cold yesterday, just a couple above freezing. Today feels a bit milder, I'm working from home so might try and get out at lunch for a little run. My legs are a bit sore from yesterday though.

raining again today, but it looks like the next week should be dry. Hopefully I can get some good mileage in,
RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - Danster - 02-02-2024
I forced myself out with my stiff leg muscles and did a gentle run, 3.6km apparently.
RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - General Ceel - 02-02-2024
nice!
RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - Danster - 02-03-2024
Went out again this morning and did the same 3.6km route I did yesterday. My two eldest joined me as well, 14 and 10, and I think I held them back!!!
Not great speed or distance yet, but it's the first time in months and months that I have gone for a run three days on the bounce. I'm starting to wonder whether I could manage 100km this month...

Just a short walk with my camera up to the waterfall this morning.
RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - Danster - 02-04-2024
You can walk to a waterfall? I live in one of the flattest counties in England, no waterfalls near me.
I've just got back from another 5km run. Four day streak now and I should make it five as I'm working from home tomorrow so there's no excuse to not use my lunch hour to go out for a run.
