It's seriously wet in Somerset. Considering testing out the OMM waterproof I bought last week...

I did a surprisingly pleasant 11 miles in the rain this morning. Thoroughly wet, as was the dog that I did the first 4 miles with, but satisfying.

And feel *so* virtuous for having done it :-)

Get out there, Badger :-)

It is a good feeling, isn't it, roberton :-)

Running in awful weather always seems to bring an added dose of endorphins, I find. Partly because, as on my run this morning, virtually the only people you meet are other runners, and you give each other a little nod of respect at how hard/mad/dedicated we are :-)

Yes, that’s true, LD. There was a fair bit of nodding and smiling (albeit somewhat grimly) going on in SE London this morning.

Well done roberton:)
Have you been yet Badger? Hmmmm?
I did 5 and a bit super wet and windy miles earlier, they were brilliant and I was ridiculously fast for me. Possibly because I didn’t stop to walk and take photos, but beasties the hills :)

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
