Those are fabulous photos, GC :) Love the bloke in his boxers and the snorkel man :) Some really comical faces emerging from the bog :)

Excellent pictures GC. I think I might have been uttering a word beginning with F as I came out of the bog (for some reason autocorrect didn't like 'bog' and tried to change it to 'book'. I don't usually look that muddy when climbing out of a book).

Denbies waiting for the start. They are Playing Eye of The Tiger, so it must be time to go. Still trying to decide what to wear.

Great photos. Some interesting outfits. The bloke in the boxers must have been frozen!

Good luck Dio.

Just letting breakfast digest before out for a run.

Facebook has just come up with some memories. It was on this day four years ago that I entered my first half marathon (and second ever race). I was terrified, hated the training and said 'never again'.

Morning :)

lol Carp :)

fab photos, a bit jealous
good luck Dio RRR RA and anyone else X-C ing

LD - I would be fairy godmother with thermals and boots - but you would suit thermal skimpy :)

have lost the ability to sleep at the right time, hence haven't been awake v long! Goodness knows why, it's very annoying :(

We have snow but instead of nice dry crispy stuff it's wet and slushy and the mud is still wet - so if I can get my arse out for a run it will be on roads instead of the crispy crunchy icy trail I'd hoped for

Five miles done but it was a real struggle :-(. I felt very lumbering but I'm hoping that's a result of not having run much recently and things will improve this week.

Hope Dio doesn't get frostbite!

*off to check out GC's photos*

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 :-)
