I love the idea of taking a photo at 500 miles jambomo!! And welcome 😃 Good to see you back Kimbles.

Been over the fells with dog and hubby for 3 miles I did some running in my wellies!! Got back and changed into my kit and set out for 1m ended off with 1.7m!! It was raining heavy when I left but I still went - big thing for a person who avoids going out if it's raining :):):)

Happy new year everyone.

Well done! Its very hard to motivate yourself to get out in the rain! Plan is to go for the first run tomorrow morning, hopefully now I've said it it'll happen!

Count me in. I could do with a challenge, especially as i've not started my year with the usual Double parkrun.

I will be aiming for 500 miles this year, which will be a big jump from the 400 I did in 2016 (which was my best year to date). Definitely need a social space as I've not currently got a running club.

My family has stopped me going out for a run all weekend plus today. I'm off tomorrow as it's an INSET day, so might squeeze in my first run of the year while everyone's still in bed.

I slept through my morning run window! Ended up being a late night last night. Will still try and get out at some point today though. Good plan going tomorrow Surrey Phil.

About This Thread

Maintained by geordiegirl
Another group for another year, but whether you're aiming for 500 or more or less lets just have a nice little social group to share our goals and running antics.

Everyone is welcome, whether you don't want to set an official target or you may be aiming further but still want to pop by for a chat/offer some words of wisdom or just because the door is always open and kettle is on.

Target miles Link http://www.fetcheveryone.com/training-mileagetargets-filtered.php?category=RUN&mileage=500

to set your mileage:

Go to the Train tab

scroll down to where it says - annual mileage targets

there should be a little box to the right in red, click for run and add your mileage.

Race Planner docs.google.com

(When you go in give yourself a colour so I know you're wanting to be on the sheet so I can keep it tidy)

If you update the race planner after I've updated the header drop me an fmail or a reminder (or 2) on the thread so I know to update. Thanks
