LindsD Oct 2017 3:20pm, 4 Oct 2017 19,455 posts	0 LindsD I ran just over three miles. This is cause for celebration, although I didn't feel great for most of it. Ankle seems OK, though.

LazyDaisy Oct 2017 3:37pm, 4 Oct 2017 19,912 posts	0 LazyDaisy Why did TCT want you to enter the public ballot AL, if you were already 'in' on the charity place? Seems a waste of time, or is there something I'm not aware of? Tbh my heart sinks at this time of the year. As club sec dealing with the 'aggro' generated by the club places/rejection slips/emails/deferrals/people who are in no position to train for the marathon because of long term injury but who take up club places etc etc etc is probably the most time-consuming part of my role I want to shout 'There are other marathons, people!' at them
Ymee Oct 2017 4:16pm, 4 Oct 2017 1,903 posts	0 Ymee Back from Edinburgh. Finding the wish to watch last night's Dr Foster when I know I really need to be preparing my appraisal paperwork. Yay Linds Seems a shame people are so selfish, LD Yay also for glo-worms of people getting moving (autocorrect wanted to make that go-worms, which is fairly appropriate!). I'm always open to light recommendations - I have yet to find one I am absolutely 100% happy with.The best one I've had so far is decathlon.co.uk but it doesn't have a lip at the top so I tend to blind myself.
Autumnleaves Oct 2017 4:33pm, 4 Oct 2017 11,240 posts	0 Autumnleaves What they said - when someone got a ballot place as well the other day, was that you could then take up your ballot place whilst remaining in the TCT team, without a minimum fundraising target - and someone on their waiting list could be offered your original charity place. They said they would either refund your fee or add it to your fundraising total.

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 :-)
