Good luck Turk.

Paula, I'll be on the south side of Tower Bridge thinking about TBCs.

Actually I'll be running Oxford Circus to Marylebone and Wembley to South Harrow :)

Paula I don't know that bit of London at all so looked it up on google maps. Two things struck me.
One was that it's apparently 6.3 miles which you'll knock off in under an hour. The other was that by public transport it reckons it'll take over 2 hours :-0

Anyway, if the map is correct, I'll be shaking *pompoms* somewhere along the A2. Very scenic :-)

Was going to say I will be on tower bridge cheering you on as only place I know.

Lovely dog walk done in my favourite woods. Can't decide if to go to gym and swim, or run. It looks lovely out there so I think a run might win. Got a sports massage later which is going to hurt!!!

😂 sorry ITg

Hope run goes well turk, & Paula - LDs running v public transport logic would be my motive. As long as I'd remembered the stuff to run in, debatable in my case
I have snow/mountain envy, have a wonderful time skiers
It's very windy out there, loved my crosswind cycle along the seafront :-) & the pool was quiet too.

Ha ha - another one for Tower Bridge as it's the only one I've heard of!!

Go for it, Turk!
Nearly wimped out of running due to wind, but decided to head out since I could always turn round if I thought it was unsafe. In fact, apart from taking my breath away a couple of times, it was ok so carried on and did the planned 11 miles. It was quite nice really :-o

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 :-)
