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!

Lots and lots of bunting for FP's PB, GC's PB, Kim's parkrun PB, ITG's 1,000km, LG's 1st in age category and RRR's auntie's first parkrun. And everyone else's achievements; I must have missed some.

Linds - you can't be in Paris on a Saturday morning and not include a parkrun. You really can't. Just do it, and worry about excuses / apologies afterwards. Like the cat that got the cream. No matter how much he was scolded, he'd still had the cream.

(Where on earth is Knoydart? - don't worry, I'll google it).

4 and three-quarter miles for me, 3 mins run 1 min walk. Knee behaved perfectly, no-one would think it was giving me so much trouble for so many months last year.

Seem to have done 14 miles in May so far, which if I kept it up would give me over 50 miles for the month. But doubt if I shall do quite that much. Away for a long weekend next week, - why am I away for a long weekend? Drumroll.....
.........
Eldest Son and his GF (now fiancee) of many years standing are getting married. In Italy. Because she is half Italian and has lots of relatives there.

So, to London Thursday, fly out Friday, wedding Saturday, fly back Monday, home Tuesday.

(My idea of Abroad is me wandering around wide-eyed, looking at things and ooh-ing and aah-ing. Can't quite grasp this jet-out, jet-back two days later concept. I know PP does it all the time).

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 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.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
