Morning run/slide 🤣

[Jericho2332]

Morning runners, decided to get out this morning even though it was after 10am and icey as hell. Roads were busy and park and paths were full of walkers and dogs. Had to weave around them as well as avoid falling on my butt due to ice 🤣🤣

Steady pace and didn't go far due to not wanting to injure myself and had plenty in the tank at the end.

Just realised I'm 3k off 100k in December so may have to go again later or tomorrow 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

Well done on managing a run on icy ground! I find it difficult to walk let alone run when it's icy, I've fallen over a couple of times (because of my dogs!) but luckily I'm always well padded so no serious injuries 🤣 100k is impressive, hope you hit your target! 🤞👏👏👏

That is an epic amount to have ran in December. 🏆🏅🦌 Well done for getting out today- sensible to take it steady on the ice. 👍🏻

Great sliding run for you, and so close to that amazing 100k for December, I hope you get out tomorrow for it. Will that be your 1st 100k month? Happy running 🤗

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

I'm not sure if its my first but it's certainly the 1st time I've entered a challenge to do it 🤣

Sounds like you had a good shake out of the legs and another one bagged towards your 100k total. Amazing! Glad you were able to keep your footing in those icy conditions, not ideal at all. I hate running on any uncertain ground, puts me right off my stride so well done 👍

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to Runforurlife]

Yeah it's tough, have to keep concentration at 100 % at all times. Enjoyed it still though and didn't hurt anywhere near as much as the last one 🤣

Well done on getting out, even with all the walkers 🤣 and ice, just a short 6k, still makes me laugh, when we say that! 🤣 I've done 87.78 km so far this month 🤔

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to Peter44]

That's excellent Peter! It's crazy we can do that now 🤣 unlike finding these challenges on Strava, keeps me motivated to try new things and keep going out when my brains telling me not to 🤣

[Pnegirl Graduate10]

If you heard a small clunk then, that was my jaw hitting the floor...100k in a month! Wow! You should be super happy with that and I really hope you manage to tick off the last 3k before the new year. Every credit too for running in these icy conditions. I chickened out as I'm clumsy at the best of times 😂🐔

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to Pnegirl]

Thank you 😁 the conditions are tough so probably safer to wait until later in the day once it's warmed up a few degrees if your on the clumsy side 🤣

Determined to finish the 100k so il certainly be out again before New year, just for the required distance 👌🏻

This is what you do just after your birthday celebration(?)!!

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to GailXrunning]

Have to make up for all those naughty days over Xmas/birthday 🤣

[GailXrunning in reply to Jericho2332]

🤣👍Amazing number of kms for the month. So impressed. It prompted me to check and mine are just over half that! 🐣🐥Still, I’m mighty pleased to see that I’ve managed 52.6 km in December (I only started tracking progress in late November, after graduation), and am really feeling the benefits.

[Jericho2332 Graduate10 in reply to GailXrunning]

That's great going! Well done 👍🏻 I just keep challenging myself with new distances/times/routes and keep surprising myself when I achieve them 🤣 this running lark really is a game changer 👌🏻

[GailXrunning in reply to Jericho2332]

Absolutely!
