Happy Christmas everyone!

If this is the first you've heard of this challenge, see the link to the first post healthunlocked.com/marathon... - it's not too late to join in!

So that's four days of the ten completed!!!

At time of writing this post we had a fabulous ⭐1157 km⭐ in the pot (see docs.google.com/spreadsheet... for the full details); still ahead of our kilometre challenge. The 2020 miles is looking to be a challenge still, but never say never!!!

Well done to everyone who's still with us - you're AMAZING!!!

I'll continue to update the totals, so do post and comment below if you get chance, letting us know how far you have run or walked today (Friday 25th).

Merry Christmas - I doubt I will get out today - I think guilt won't let me - family probably would!! πŸ˜‰

Hi Linda - a marginally extended (not) Christmas parkrun this morning means I can throw another 5.05k into the pot - and Dexy5 , who stopped a fraction sooner, has asked me to ask you to record 5.03k on her behalf.

And we were both in Santa outfits, which produced a few friendly comments from the innocent population of Southsea ...... πŸ˜€

Merry Christmas to you all! 2 lots of 10km from Christmas Eve and 2 lots of 5km on Christmas Day from Katnap and I. Would youngest kitten’s 5k count? Eldest kitten did 4km (he’s got into bad habits at uni so we’re training him up again!) x

Hope you had a lovely day. Brilliant! I just missed this as I posted today, but it will give us a great boost for tomorrow's total!!! The kittens have always featured throughout your running - we'll accept them both as honorary members (and most distinguished guests) of this challenge 😍
