* Running and cycling plus swimming, strength training, Concept 2, kettlebells and everything else I recorded. I
only started recording all strength activity in 2020; perhaps also in 2019. I didn’t do much strength training in 2011 and 2012 anyway, but I did a fair bit from 2013 to 2018 not recorded above.

** Probably more than this as I was using a watch that did not record elevation for much of 2011.

2020 was my:

  • third biggest year for distance and time running
  • second biggest for elevation gained running
  • fifth biggest year for all cycling stats
  • second biggest year for all activity (remembering the caveat in *)

Impact of the Spanish lockdown

Because of the strict lockdown for the pandemic here in Spain, there were six weeks I couldn’t train outside (and run).

If I’d run the average for the rest of the year in those six weeks (47km, 5hrs and 890m+ a week), my running figures for the year would have been 2463km, 267hrs and 46,259m+.

This would have made 2020 my second biggest year for running distance and my biggest year for running time and elevation.

Not a bad year! And the best thing about it is the base and plan I have built for 2021. 

2021

To beat 2020 in 2021, I’ll have to average over 7hr 47min of total activity a week and run more than 4hr 33min, 42km and 787m+ a week.
