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!

The run was quite lovely till I had a disagreement with a tree root. The tree root won.

Classic face-plant. Injuries to pride and wallet (new asics pants torn :( ) and minor scrape and bruising to knee. Last thing I needed for my confidence so I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself but off for a bath to soak away my woes.

Bad luck ITG :-(
Glad you're feeling a bit better now Corrah, that's a horrid feeling at the end of a race. Make sure you re-fuel well.

Bloody Hell ITG, it's not your time on the training front at the moment I fear, I hope it improves soon. :( You never know, perhaps your crash has jolted your back into place. *keeps fingers crossed for you*

Well done Corrah, shame you didn't drink enough, recover well.

Corrah
I have a little bottle of prosecco. Am definitely hydrated ok now but my face us still radiating despite factor 50 sun block so am assuming that would not have helped today either.

ITG you are not having much luck. Hope you are ok xx

Calves still sore all the time until I've run for three miles. Did some stretching to wii fit which kindly told me I was obese. Bastard thing still I think my calves are slightly better even if morale is not

Back yesterday AR :-) I did a lot of work, something about having childcare on tap and no opportunity to engage in housework as a form of prevarication. But we had fun too, I loved watching beauty and beast under the stars at corfe castle

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 :-)
