LG I hope you hear better news today for your relative (())
Safe travels Corrah and anyone else heading out.

Snow here in Sussex so probably staying in and relaxing around the hotel, no running today, and my legs only ache very slightly after yesterday's effort. :-)

Yes I'm still thinking of turning up to see you all - I think what with the beards and all you'll be quite easy to spot - any recommendations for spectator spots? I suppose I *could* see if they are looking for volunteers still

XC is Sunday :) One excuse not to do HDS!
Hope the HDS'ers have fun anyway. I may come back to it one day but this year I am going to all the XC's in the hope of picking up the V40 prize through attendance rather than speed!

Safe travels travellers, and mend well to the worryingly broken (LG's dil's Bro) and good morning to the rest!

Meet us by the start, Seren. We'll be there from around 9.45 I guess. Fleecy, are we meeting by the start or in the car park? Last year the car parking was awful.

You can watch by the bog, but it will take us a while to get there :)

Dio, you could come too. If you wrap up warm, it will be no different to being at home, honest.... ;)

Wishing your family bit of recover well luck LG - so frightening for everyone concerned.

Good Morning :-)

Good luck to the HDS'ers. Will be suitably chilly and icy for you :-)

Yes RA I'll be at XC on Sunday. Going to run home afterwards for my mara training mileage.
Also new course at Bracknell pr tomorrow - how exciting ;-) But 2 laps now rather than 3 :-(

Rubbish snow here last night. Just sleety and slushy, though it does mean the roads are 'interestingly' icy this morning. DD2 hit the deck on her bike on her paper round outside our gate first thing. Unharmed but annoyed :-)

Maybe the Press will stop making such a fuss now and we can have some proper snow for once.

Brrr, 3.5 miles in a very icy wind with slush/snow in parts. Glad I got out there though. I've earned my pint tonight

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 :-)
