Is that Ireland Paul? Isn't there a Mourne Way Ultramarathon? Or am I mixing that up with something else. I'm getting zero circles at the mo, with just running locally, same old routes. No reason. Now that lockdown is eased I should be able to travel, but haven't been to any new hills or other places for a while. And no races on around here. Kayaking for 4 hours on Saturday up at Loch Tummel though - I'll put my Garmin on and that should get me a good few new circles!  G

No you're exactly right. There's quite a bit of mountain running in the Mournes. Even has its own round - denisrankinround.com I grew up in the foothills and Mum and Dad still live there. Did a 20ish mile loop from their house on Sunday which took me over a few peaks and 1,000 meters of climbing. I've a 54 mile Ultra on the 30th, will see me over the 10,000. |

Does it count if you bike the circles, or only walking/running/swimming?

FetchEveryone - Do Everything! If it's tracked by GPS (or even manual logging, not sure) then it counts! Took a few paths less travelled over weekend, so a few new circles - 6464. G

9,865 (all running, don't think I've walked or hiked somewhere I haven't also ran - maybe a few non running circles). 54 mile ultra coming up in two week, pretty much all untouched this year. Should see me comfortably over the line with a few months to spare. |

After a fair amount of walking and some running in Jersey & France, I've managed to up to 5,444. Still way off target and two weeks of quarantine ain't gonna do anything to add to it! Laps around the garden anyone?

Then it's 19.547 circle for me so far - but I bike a lot, so longer distances + I travelled a bit and move too, which makes it easier to explore more circles.

Wow, thats a lot and well done on 10000 already. I think most of us on here are mostly runners so 10000 is tough, especially with lockdown.

Well done Juliane - biking def counts. The big restriction for a lot of us has bee lockdown, of course! Otherwise even runners travel far and wide in the hills etc. and get lots of circles! G
