You will love Beachy Dipps :) Just run up Butser Herl 20 times and that'll be perfect prep :)
Weather on the IoW was shocking Saturday and yesterday, hopefully it'll fine up! I'm back a few times this week.

Went swimming this afternoon - it's a short session which means the pool is usually pretty empty, and so it proved - just me and two guys, we had a lane each :-). I'm slowly getting back to bilateral breathing but my arms (both of them :-0) are pathetically weak and I am out of breath after nearly every pair of lengths :-( However, coincidentally, in the post today was the Aspire English Channel swim challenge leaflet. If I enter, I will *have* to complete it and that means two decent swims per week for 12 weeks, which would be no bad thing at all.

My physio was encouraging today, about further progress still possible on my arm. She said she can feel that my soft tissue is still quite springy :-). Hurrah for springy soft tissue, that's what I say :-)

*Virtually* across the Channel AR ;-). If anyone is looking for a reason to commit to some swim training - since swimming races are way beyond me at the best of times this is why I do it - the Aspire Challenge is a fun thing to do and you can follow your progress on a nifty little map :-) aspirechannelswim.co.uk

About This Thread

Maintained by Merrymoo
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 :-)
