Thanks for the wishes and (()). Today was less bad, but was always going to be because the same thing can't happen twice - my friend who I mentioned on here at the back end of last year was diagnosed with brain metastases from her skin cancer died yesterday morning. She was 49 and leaves a husband and 3 kids, the youngest is due to sit her highers next month. Even harder because she died on the Unit where I work. Feel like I've been steamrollered.

Like the idea of a concorde medal. Like the idea of going out the door and running and running and running and not stopping.

36 minutes run.

Really didn't want to go.

Really glad I did.

And still have a heart!

Oh Ymee that's terrible, I'm so sorry. There was me thinking my day was a bit shit. Sometimes we just need to be grateful for our own and loved ones good health.

Was coming on here to say I've run 2 miles and managed to step in dog poo which got all in my treads - grrr! Also liking Mandymoos's plan for a gin. 🍋

How very sad and tough for you Ymee. That feeling of just wanting literally to run away is very understandable. (((Ymee))).

So sorry Ymee ((()))

I'm not now going to complain about a day spent houseworking and trying to lay a floor in "the gym".

So sorry, Ymee, there are no easy answers or platitudes at a time like this.

Hugs xx

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
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
