Morning all! Happy birthday Columba! RH, I've done that before, decided best option was to walk around in my socks (black, luckily matching with no holes) as opposed to bright blue trainers which would stand out like a sore thumb....

Cold/Foggy bike commute this morning, luckily it's only 2 miles! Club run for me tonight, wondering how I'll cope having a chinese with parents beforehand?? Chinese 5.30, run 7.00, should be fine......

Sneaked past CStar on the mileage table ;) not sure if he still has runs to upload. Today is light for me and Friday rest so I anticipate sliding down the table again soon.

Also, if I hit 700 miles in, say, August, do I get to take the rest of the year off?

Morning all :-)

Happy birthday Columba! cake

I've been known to spend the day in bright orange trail shoes (which I use for walking to the station) having forgotten to pack work boots for the office.

Hope your week ends better karl.

Short lunchtime run today is all I'll manage, plus a good core / stretch session tonight. Daughter is complaining of soreness after gymnastics and taekwondo yesterday so we'll stretch together.

:) cake champagne and general birthday 🎶 to Columba, many happy returns
~waves to Karl, boo to car~
ITG the polite thing I believe is to adjust your mileage targets if you hit 700 impressively early so someone else gets to be top but you keep posting on this thread as you hit the 1000 etc. Not that I've had to worry about that!

A little 2 miler in unexpected sunshine for me :)

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 :-)
