I’m doing REDJanuary (do check it out) and was utterly delighted when we came across a flock of redwings for today’s rather gentle RED12.
Pic is not mine - they were too quick!!

"Keeping effort relatively low" - dammit Strava!There doesn't seem to be any way of adjusting for recent heart surgery and beta blockers - that was a maximum effort run! #running #MalvernHills #REDJanuary

#RedJanuary is over. Finally. Thought I’d just give you all my thoughts. I managed to stay dry all month. Never done it before and other than 1 day I didn’t really miss it. Ate much better and exercised every day for at least 30 mins. a full month closing my Apple Watch rings. And 3kg lost.

OH MY GOD HOW IS IT ONLY DAY 29 OF #REDJANUARY ??????
Struggling now. Didn’t want to get up. Didn’t want to go swim. Swim was hard. Didn’t feel better after it.
2 more days….

In my swim this morning, I did my KM in 26m36. My quickest time so far. We’ve broken the back of #redjanuary!!

Normally on a cold, wet, stormy night, exercise would be the furthest thing from my mind. But this is #RedJanuary and I’ve not come this far to give up. So, a 30 min walk round the block was in order. Didn’t manage to get back before the rain, so got soaked. But it was worth it.

#RedJanuary update:
I’m not sure whether this is all getting easier or I have just beaten myself into submission. Up at 7.15 to swim before starting work. Fastest KM so far, knocked it out in 27.13. Still not near where I was but over a minute quicker than when I started 3 weeks ago.

So I felt very smug this morning, as I’d remembered to set the warm up function on the car so I didn’t have to scrape it and it was toasty warm as I got in it.
Day 15 of #RedJanuary ✅
Swim, and it’s definitely getting easier. Quickest time so far even after swallowing half the pool at one point

So brief check in on day 14 of #RedJanuary.
45 min walk with dogs banked. I always feel like it is more exercise because one dog pulls me and another gets yanked along (he’s lazy before you ask).

This morning’s #RedJanuary was back in the pool. Whilst I’m still not putting in the sort of times I was 2 years ago (probably 3 mins off my base level 1km time) it is starting to feel easier. Which is nice.
Now I just need all the idiots to get out of my lane and leave me to it.

Day 10 of #RedJanuary and it’s getting tougher. Although I’ve eaten well so far this month, yesterday I lapsed and ate biscuits! Morning swim done to get my exercise in, and now having a smoothie.

Day 5 of #RedJanuary. (sorry @adriaandthepriors.bsky.social )
45 min walk with the dogs and a mango and pineapple smoothie for lunch. Found out that pineapple really doesn’t work in a smoothie as it doesn’t blend as well. Hey Ho. It will get drunk. Down the hatch!

Day 3 of #RedJanuary. Another swim today. Harder work than yesterday. I think this is where I start needing a bit of motivation. Any help gratefully received.

So day 2 of #RedJanuary completed. Can confirm, did not enjoy. It’s about a year since my last serious swim and I was around 3 mins off my normal 1km pace. Also struggled to get my breathing right in the first 10 lengths, which is not something I’ve ever had a problem with before.
