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!

And, may I say, what a splendid photo. *runs round thread with pants on head*

I had a tough trail run this morning, the Goosefair Gallop 10K in Nottinghamshire. I hear the winner came in at around 40 minutes so I was really pleased to do 50 minutes. I'm aiming for 46-47 in a couple of months at the Percy Pud 10K which is a lot flatter so this went perfectly to plan. :-) Took mate for a beer after and you could order a little plate of pigs in blankets. Brilliant morning.

Well done LG, it's not always easy to get out and get some miles done on Sunday after a busy Saturday.

*wonders whether Som took the bananas off his head before putting the pants on it, or whether the pants went on top of the bananas*

I would say the pants went on top to save the bananas sliding off

I would generally put the pants on top of the bananas, but Som may take a different approach.

Running was fun this morning :-). I did a bit of a bimble round town then slowly ground my way up Peak Hill to wait for OH. Watching the cyclists coming up that hill was not exciting, because they were mostly going very slowly (it's very steep) but it was good to see that people could actually cycle that slowly and not fall off or come to a complete halt :-) which is always my worry when in the bottomest gear possible ;-).

Then I ran back home and did some fartlekking on the way and that was fun.

Top day - 12 miles of Race Angel duties - 8 of which were up and down the same stretch of hill :) Got to run alongside some lovely Fetchies, and my RR crew in their Metric Marathon and dry a few tears and hold a few hands - genuinely a privilege :)

And pants have handy holes in various places, perfect for bananabanana

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 :-)
