I had a lovely interaction with a young deer this morning. I surprised it as I came around a corner. He or she (let's say he) bounded away but then stopped once I'd stopped. I think he wanted me to come and play leaping around the field with him as he kept approaching, then moving away, then coming a bit closer instead of making for the nearest cover as they normally do. Behind us a sparrowhawk was hovering over a hedgerow while the sun reflected on the tower cranes and the cathedral.

Sounds like the sort of run you don’t want to be looking at your Garmin Dio :)

Morning all, I have smiled at lots of today's posts: young deer, new tumble dryers, the spine in fancy dress, not being a morning, afternoon or evening person (same here), sunrise on the Solent and London marathon entries! Love this thread! Not much to report here, moon still aches but possibly a bit better, I may be able to try a run before too much longer.

Swim done, only fractionally less slow than last week but a swim is a swim :-)

Great VLM news Claire! Locally I haven't heard of a single successful ballot entry yet but quite a few folk are still waiting to hear.

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 :-)
