2025’s Running Total

Run: 174hrs 54min (1,236mi) / Gym: 18hrs / Crosstrain: 33hrs

Average weekly mileage of just under 24 miles, over approximately 3hrs 20mins.

Three notable injuries: knee (meniscus), strains to both groins, anterior tibialis tendinopathy. All of which on reflection, appear to be a result of returning to high volume too quickly. [mental note].

Major take-aways from the year:

• You get injured when you push too hard too quickly [remember you are old now]

• You need to do the gym work consistently to strengthen joint tissues to avoid injury [see note above]

• You have not completed any events in 2025 [disappointing], but have managed to maintain decent consistency without a target race non-the-less [well done].

Action list:

• Set 2026 targets for:
  • mileage
  • events
  • PRs
  • activity types

• Review:
  • Nutrition (diet and supplements)
  • Footwear
