We have a club cowbell too - always encouraging to hear that ringing out when you're racing :-)

Lovely morning run in the Forest of Dean this morning. As I feared, my energy levels were far too low for 9 miles, but there was a nice little group of us coming back from injury, colds etc so we did a 5 mile out-and-back instead, which was perfect for me.

The only (but huge) bad thing about the morning was hearing that a friend's sister has been diagnosed with leukaemia :-(

It was OK, a bit lacking in strength, but not painful.my hip and knee are aching now, so they must have been compensating.I think I need to concentrate on cycling and leg strength work with the occasional run thrown in.

That's very sad news, LD.

Dio - yay for your first proper run since the op! Your plan for strength and cycling work sounds good to me. Very sensible.

Excellent news, AL :-)

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 :-)
