12 more miles added this morning. I may fall behind the line this month as I have 7 days to do 50 miles for the target but I can't see that happening off 3 or maybe 4 runs.

Ahead of the line today but will slip behind by the month end, I'll be just over 13 short at month end. I hope to do parkrun a week Saturday but it's doubtful.

You won't be too far behind Fenland Flier .

I think I'm currently 100 or so ahead of the breakeven point but will be having a few days off after my target race in October.

Apologies. I forgot to do the roundup today. I did take the screenshot last night so I'll make sure I do the roundup tomorrow. I finished September with my annual total up to 1,237 miles. On target so I'm happy with that.

In preparation for the new month I thought I'd give my round up the theme of important days that are coming up in the new month! I know. Bear with me! I was running out of ideas for round-up themes. Blame taper madness!🤪🤣 Anyway.  Here goes....

For the top 10 on my list. October 5th is "World Smile Day". A day started by Harvey Ball, creater of the smiley, as a day which is dedicated to smiles and kind acts throughout the world.

for the next cohort on my list, there is "Grandparents Day" to look forward to on October 10th. Grandparents Day in October is the UK's celebration of grandmothers, grandfathers and all grandparents. It is a day to appreciate and show your love for your grandparents. So there you go! 😉😂

Halloween is thought to have it's roots in the pagan festival of Samhain which was a type of harvest festival. It is celebrated with trick or treating, dressing up and decorations....
