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!

Ran to TGEd's house, we ran to South Norwood Country parkrun, walked a bit back with a club mate who lives nearby, ran the rest to his, ran to a Dulwich Park, did multiple laps, picked and ate blackberries in the walking bits, ran home. 20 miles on the clock, plus two bits where I forgot to restart the Garmin.

Now I'm starving.

Quite pleased with my parkrun this morning (new attendance record - 575! :-0). First official run on the new course, still no sub 30 but very even pacing if I say so myself :-)

Yes AL, I have told the rest of the core team that they were right and I was wrong, because the new course *just about* coped with that number whereas the old course would have been a nightmare. I suspect numbers will stay high now until the Cheltenham Half at the beginning of October, because quite a few people use it as part of their long-run training.

It may have helped today that James Cracknell was barcode scanning. It was very noticeable how much longer his queue was than the other three :-).

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 :-)
