An unashamed bagger since 2014 (with 3 years out due to living overseas) I was surprised to hit up 42 munros (plus another 19 hills - Corbetts, Grahams and Donalds) in 2020, without breaking any of the restrictions, taking me to 186 munros in total. I had planned to take the remaining ones at a relaxed pace (maybe over 3 years) - with around 32 a year - those include most of the cuillin and the remote ones like the Fisherfield lot, Knoydart and the long walk-in/out ones around the Cairngorms, so i figured that was a reasonable target.
Now, with the way 2021 has started (lockdown just announced - so at least Jan is a write-off, and I suspect quite a bit longer than that), I'm not so sure what will be achievable this year. May revise my target down to try and hit at least a 200 munro total, with any more than that being a bonus. I also started mountain biking last year, which I enjoyed (live in Argyll & Bute so there's decent routes around) so I'll likely pick that up again when it's less icy. Until then I may need to keep myself active with something I've never enjoyed - running >.<
