ITG 🇮🇸
oooh, I wonder if my outdoor pool counts. Probably not since it is warm and not exactly open. Which means I will be earning and giving it back every time I go for a dip!

[I think you’re right ITG, it looks like a Gentoo]
Whilst I love penguins, that’s one for the ‘badges I won’t ever get’ list - I’m shit at swimming even in a pool, so never going to do OW swimming, and certainly not in January.

Nice work Oscar! Are you going for the next streak badge? (Is it 50 next).
I got my 21 day streak badge yesterday. Doing Run the Sun so assuming that all goes well will get to 28, would like to carry on after that but will see how things go.

well done streakers. I did Run the Sum at the start of my streak in September, then did it for another month and then another, which actually got me close to 100. I decided to not bother with RtS in December, but got more into WSW. It helps with streaking to not focus on the huge badge numbers and how far away they are. Soon the running just becomes a habit, though it is worth making nearly every other run a recovery or gentle effort.

Ha ha, GM... nope. Still Grouchy. 50 streak seems a long way off so I think I will get to 31 (Monday) and aim for the whole month (next Sunday - 37) to get my RtS badge but that might be it. Although I would say that I have noticed that running every day has been very beneficial for my mental health. I haven't had any really low days *fingers crossed* since a real low point in early December.
