Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Morning all

Well done to Som & FML for reaching the 700 Mile Target.

Looks like there has been some good running recently which is always good to see.

Felt completely shattered after yesterdays long run so spent most of the day fighting the urge to just fall asleep (doesn't help that I actually can't sleep during day time hours) so ended up in bed at 9:30 last night. Then preceeded to struggle to settle woke up at 4:30 and fought to get back to sleep after that!

Oh well no running on the cards today so hopefully the rest will do me some good!

Alex sometimes after a race I would struggle with sleep, despite being tired. Either I don't try hard enough these days or the body adapts but either way I'm sure you will 'acclimatise' to the effect of the long runs.

Morning all. Rest day for me today so moved across town for a few jobs and now sat waiting for a helichopter back.

Congrats to FML and Som on the 700.

Loads of great running in this thread at the minute and I'm finding it quite motivating so thank you all.

Sounds wonderful "waiting for hleicopter" as if it was a bus, but sure it isnt - hope youve had a good rest day
Evening races are even worse for sleep, but yes think you adjust eventually to the long runs

Morning.
bunting for FML's 700. You must have been running in East Anglia or thereabouts; or maybe Oxfordshire; it looks so very flat.

Love the idea of waiting for a helicopter. Just don't put that on the Mundane thread.

Morning Columba

I live in Sleaford South Lincolnshire, that was along the Riverbank of the River Slea. It is completely flat as we are on the edge of the fenlands

About This Thread

Maintained by iRan
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2016 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

bunting and 700er medals are often spotted around here.

Happy running :-)
