🎄Some Great Runs coming up…anyone else doing the Great Run Solo Christmas Challenge?🎄

[MissUnderstanding]

Morning all! It’s been a while since I’ve posted. It’s been insanely busy here. I survived and I’m so excited to get back on track with the runs.

The lovely Folkylass and I are doing the Great Run Solo Christmas challenge. This is what they say about how it works..

“No reindeer needed for this challenge, complete 12 runs or walks between the start of December and Christmas Day and earn yourself a special Christmas medal-meets-tree ornament.”

…

“From 1st December, you can log your runs with our online tracker or use your own tracking app or device to record your activity if you prefer.  Once you’ve completed all of your runs and reached your target distance, simply submit your results and we’ll have your digital finisher’s certificate with you to show off to the whole family on Christmas morning. “

There’s a distance challenge too but I’m just going to aim for 12 runs.

For me, that will be £15 well spent on motivation to get out and run (or walk!) when December busyness/breeziness/blizzardness strikes! You can enter until Dec 6th.

Keep an eye out for Bridge’s own Advent Challenge (coming very soon!) which will help keep those festive runs coming too.

Anyone else in (officially or unofficially?)

Christmiss U! 🎄🎄🎄🎄

I’m signed up. Starting with a big one on the 1st and hoping it will keep me going afterwards!

Ooh good luck! I’ve just seen you’re on Le Pom Pom post…so envious of your French flying feet!

[GoogleMe Graduate10]

I am very, very tempted...

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to GoogleMe]

I’m something of a bad influence with this sort of thing! I might have at least one of my sisters on board as well…

I rationalised it to myself as the fact I wanted to do a December event but couldnt find one. Plus it’s my Christmas present to myself. And it’s a cute medal….

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Thank you! And you too…so lovely to see you running again ❤️❤️❤️

[Folkylass Graduate10]

Hi     MissUnderstanding and    Shake-and-run Well hasn’t that come round quick? Oooo I’m so looking forward to Sunday and all the lovely Christmassy …is that even a word🤣 sights that will hopefully greet us during our virtual challenge. It will definitely put us in the festive spirit and mood for Xmas.

See you out there lovelies and good luck and enjoy !🙋‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️⛄️🎄🎅xx

Is that sleigh bells I hear tuning up 🤔?

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to Folkylass]

I can definitely hear sleigh bells!! Normally I don’t get Christmassy until Christmas Eve but maybe starting practising descants for carol services starting next weekend has got me in the mood early this year!

So excited to get started on the runs now!

Well done  MissUnderstanding ,  Folkylass and Shake-and-run . I did this last year and had so much fun doing all the challenges and getting the 12 runs in.

[drl212 Graduate10]

I have joined!!

Mine will be a few parkruns and smaller walks but who can pass up bling that doubles as a Christmas ornament...

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to drl212]

Fantastic! Hope it’s a fun challenge! I love the excuse to get Christmassy now December has arrived 🎄
