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!

And me. An enclosed car is one thing, but a chair with all that visible space below one's dangling feet doesn't bear thinking of.

Grey, humid and very warm here. Been gardening.

LG, it just takes a little getting used to like everything else. My road bike is nice and comfy, but that is after I've broken in the seat and while wearing a nice padded pair of shorts. My MTB fails on both counts! (Oh and chamois cream helps too :-) )

I went through the 700 barrier today. After Sunday's run I was only 0.83 miles short of the target. That did not give me much choice, route wise, to run at lunch time and give y'all a decent photo. So you haven't got a picturesque countryside shot or an interesting artefact. What you have got is the Weetabix factory in Corby:

Well done sera on your 700 bunting
I used to work in telecommunications,ladders against walls were ok but telegraph poles used to scare the wotsit out of me because there would be nothing visible in front of you.

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 :-)
