Stretched@Birth Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 I started this challenge with a “Walk - Run on 1 Jan at the Vaal dam. 3 months later, I had a lekker ride at the dam again. Started it as motivation to be more active this year, no goals to loose weight, though I’ve shifted a few kg’s. I’m definitely fitter and stronger, enjoying riding and just being active!

SwissVan Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Let me tell you.....Golf is not so easy.After 3 days of golf (mostly walking following the golf cart) I need a rest ????
Frosty Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Let me tell you.....Golf is not so easy.After 3 days of golf (mostly walking following the golf cart) I need a rest [emoji16]Once played 36 holes per day over the Easter weekend... 144 holes with an average score of 4.33 per hole (no cart, no caddy). A retro-calculation would have made it about 60km worth of walking, between tee & green.

[insert own word here]. That was many moons ago. Was playing off a 7 at the time, but shooting regular scores in the mid 70’s. Was cut to a 3 just before end of year exams that year.

Tim Brink Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Day 100. Already wondering how it will feel missing a day in around 270 days time. The guilt is killing me. Frosty and Stretched@Birth 2
Frosty Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Day 100. Already wondering how it will feel missing a day in around 270 days time. The guilt is killing me.You've done more than double my mileage , although to be fair half my activities have been runs. SwissVan 1
SwissVan Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Never mind the mileage...check out the elevation gain
Tim Brink Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Never mind the mileage...check out the elevation gain It isn't flat so much down south. Only one of those 105 uploads is not recorded on the Elemnt, but on the phone, which chucked out an error of about 3 000m (and Strava won't let you correct). But still 45 000-odd. Now I must teach myself to gain them metres quicker. #goalswithingoals #vamforbreakfast Edited April 10, 2018 by Tim Brink Frosty 1
Stretched@Birth Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 So last night my plans to ride to the Squash court, play 5 games and ride home again were scuppered by the weather. So I turned on Strava, put my phone in my pocket, and ended up playing 6 games (won 4 to 2)... GPS signal acquired, but "auto stop" has adjusted my total time of 40:44 to 18:39. As I don't have a compatible HRM, I have no heart rate data. So it seems my high intensity, low distance and adjusted time session is going to put me out of the challenge, unless total time will be accepted...?

My auto stop is disabled, and sometimes it still struggles to pick up movement. I've got loads of activities shorter than 20min, but they all were at least 20+min. If strava says 20min on the screen before syncing, it counts. Edited April 12, 2018 by Kalahari Vegmot Stretched@Birth and Joe De Beer 2
Joe De Beer Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 My new pet hate is when Apple Watch doesn’t sync with Strava .... now the waiting begins to see if it is just a delay or a quick 20min walk after dinner [emoji23] Tim Brink 1

Frosty Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 My biggest week for the challenge so far, i.t.o. duration and distance. In fact, also the biggest week in the last year. One more day to go, then 1/3 of the way through the challenge. Will post the usual month-end data tomorrow evening, after a well-deserved recovery day at work (unfortunately).
