Envious of the ice-free running conditions - it’s like a skating rink here for the fourth day in a row, and foggy and cold so no chance of the sun coming out to melt it. The forecast is the same for the rest of the week. 🙁
I’m going to invest in a treadmill but I need to donate the spare bedroom furniture first to accommodate it so it will be after Christmas before I get it. I’m very unlikely to make 100 this month.

A very sensible decision, Tikka. Really not worth risking broken bones just to reach a arbitrary target number. Better in the long run to stay safe. You'll be back to getting the 💯 in the New Year, for sure! x

Yes, V’Rap. Still nursing a fractured elbow so my arm is painful when I run, but my legs are okay! That said, I ran yesterday and was so tense and nervous about slipping on the icy patches that I seem to have tweaked a tendon in my kneecap mincing along. I don’t think I’ll venture out today, it’s too risky. One broken bone is enough!

I felt the backs of my legs and my lower back on Saturday after running on icy sections of road and noticeably altering my gait on Friday.

Better weather is on the way - you can be sure that as soon as I sink my savings in a treadmill the weather will revert to mild and sunny, that’s how these things tend to work. 😂

Definitely not worth risking a fall. It’s still icy here but doesn’t seem as bad as it has been I didn’t run at the weekend it was even slippy in the woods Friday & I slipped walking yesterday. Going to do a tentative couple of miles at lunchtime and all being well woodland run with a friend tonight. I’m not chasing 100 this month.

5 for me this morning takes me to 59.3, still on track for everyday this month. Was colder today wore my base layer for the first time this year under a t-shirt! ❄️ Not as slippy as it has been the last couple of days even if it is colder.

Im still on the shelf. Had a little setback last Friday but hoping to be able to try a run on Friday or Saturday this week. Either way unlikely to hit 100.

Managed to get a short run in at lunchtime only 2.4 but while there has been a thaw there was still some very skittish parts. 25.5
