I planned to do 80 miles cycling, and have managed about 3. Next month I'll do better with both.

Feb despite being a shorter month Ive got on a lot better. Thats despite writing and recording an album too!
Kept up to 20k per week, giving a total of just over 90k for the month, in 11 runs. Highlight was 16k/10miles last Sunday - my longest distance since having knee trouble last October.
Got loads of walking in though building my leg back up so - 100+ miles for the month waking/running.
I think it’s different for everyone. I’m taking no risks at all so always do a warm up and warm down. It hasn’t stopped me getting hurt already this year though...
So, I did 7 runs and totalled 27 miles. Less than January which was the start of my attempt to get into running. I had one good week where I ran every other day, and got my average pace down to 8:00/mile (5:00/km) which I'm pleased with.
Guess I'll just get my shit together and smash it in March. I think one of my issues is that I try to do it after work, but it doesn't fit well with the rest of my house who want dinner at that time. Also, I tend to only run at my fast pace when I should probably do a fast one, followed by a "recovery" run the next day. I should maybe do gentle but longer runs to get the miles into my legs.
Good luck all of you. I love reading/seeing all the miles getting logged.
This evening I went out for a gentle plod of about 3 miles. I saw about because my phone was low on battery and didn't record accurately. Apparently I did 2.75 miles in 27 minutes, but there are big corner cuts on the map so I reckon closer to 3.5 miles. And my last mile pace was 5:15 which I don't think I could actually manage at full sprint. Bloody technology.
Still, I'm determined to get it going. My wife has started too which is great cos she suffers a bit of anxiety and went out without me - 18 year old son went along on his bike, but it's a start.
also spoke to my local running shop about my next pair of shoes. They’re going to drop some pairs round for me to try on at home and see what fits well. Bloody marvellous customer service!
Today I went for my longest in years, and felt very good doing 10k in 8:10 /mile pace.
