Wow that's quite a jump, Bint, from the little runs you've been doing. Or have I missed your running up and down mountains like a little Chamonix chamois?

Which songs will you be singing to PP tomorrow? Have you got anything special up your sleeve to spur him on? :-)

I have been hiking a LOT this week and those last 17 miles are going to be run/hike so I'll be grand.

I'm going to it him with a big stick if he stops moving :-)

It's good that you recovered in time to get something out of Chamonix, Bint!

:-) what excellent support for PP - I think

So far:
- the aldermaston taxi rank (rated 3 stars on google) turned out not to exist. All mini cabs booked so that was 2 mile walk along the main road. Found the footpath at the end of it
- I have left my water bottle at reading stn and am having to go back for it. That’s 6 miles walked then.
- Linds lost her car keys because she pitched her tent on top of them
- we lost the relay armband. it was on my wrist

- im feeling more relaxed and sunny than for what feels like forever. Linds makes a very nice flapjack

We are near to the entrance of gate D opposite the day car park and near a huge orange neon flag. Hoping for visitors :-)

Sounds a normal Endure Friday Seren :)

I could have told you that Aldermaston does not have a taxi rank or a minicab firm, having discovered that last year when standing at the station with a huge rucksack, a tent and a camp stove. I hope you get your water bottle ok.

Great news Bint. We have a lovely little campsite set up but it's miles from anyone else. I'm back in London picking up the kids. V excited :)

:-o eek Carp. By some godsend the tent I have inherited has wheels like an air steward trolley so I could trundle with my bundle. And I had two people help me put it up and one make me a cup of tea :-)
I was thinking of your little worm tent - someone was describing you backing into it :-)

The team captain has bought so much food with her she had to drive it down in two car loads. I really feel like I’ve landed on my feet :-)
Hope drive is kind to you Linds x

About This Thread

Maintained by Merrymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2018 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.

Next year's spreadsheet can be found here - let's fill it up
