Morning all, lots to catch up on. Excited for all you lovely VLMers. Been busy working and running, broke the monthly 100 and yearly 400 but twisted my knee on Wednesday during warmup then ran on it as it felt OK. Hurt yesterday but not so bad today, will rest again.

Morning,

Hope everyone doing VLM is having a restful day! I will be watching it half asleep post nightshift on Sunday.

Back on nights tonight. May sneak in a Parkrun post shift tomorrow.

I just want it to be Sunday already! One of those weeks I'm afraid..

I have no idea where PP land is, but I am guessing it is not Pompeii.

I'm not sure what I will be able to watch here of the marathon. For Rome, Italian telly coverage stopped at 1200! (The marathon only started at 0845.)

Yes, it's good to be running again AR.

I wouldn't say my ankle is perfect by a long way but after the last surgery it feels different. I don't spend the first kilometre limping for one thing and don't need to swallow vast amounts of Ibuprofen to even be able to do that. When it got to the point that I was taking 3200 mg a day for weeks at a time I decided that it was probably best to stop running.

AR Its because I is an Afleete ;-)

Think the low numbers are for ballot entries Lower numbers are blue start, higher numbers are generally for Charity entries and red start

Bad luck and take care of that knee FP!

Molesy I'm delighted that any running is happening at all for you - is it nearly 2 years now that you've been on the injury bench? You have been fantastically patient.

About This Thread

Maintained by Merrymoo
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 :-)
