Welcome back Claire horrible things stress fractures

LD Amazing how inefficient the NHS still seems to be

Got back from work early so have managed a bike and a run before DS1 arrives :-), apparently I am to be photographed helping him dress in the morning:-O, obviously he was leaving that as a surprise, he is 30 years old, and it is probably 25 years since I last helped him get dressed

LOL. It'll probably be an artistic shot of you helping him into his tailcoat Phil.

I have added an edit to my blog - Mum phoned to say she'd thought it over and *maybe* she should go ahead with the procedure. I think my being very direct with her got through, horrible though it made me feel. We've agreed to think about it when the next appointment comes through. I have cheered up now :-)

I had to go out to do the announcements at the club run. I had toyed with the idea of running but was very glad I didn't as there was a dreadful hailstorm about 1 minute after they'd all set off. I got soaked just walking back to the car and am now in my PJs and cosy dressing gown on the sofa.

That's much better Daisy.

I was going to go out for a short plod when I got home as I didn't cycle in today. But then I got tea instead.

Thanks to Meglet, TeeBee and Columba, I've done some very basic - but everyone has to start somewhere - yoga. Meglet, the sub-4 benefit is hopefully a given and so not mentioned explicitly.

Core strength seems to the the answer to everything. Injury prevention, sore back, getting faster etc. So it will probably help the sub-4!

I’ve been doing a core class once a week for a few years. 6 months ago after I moved house I changed to a different class which is much more ‘hardcore’ (sorry!) and less stretching. But I can really feel the benefits. Can’t say it’s made me faster, but less back issues and certainly more comfortable on my bike. It’s helped with wrist strength too, I used to get discomfort after a lot of cycling but hardly noticed it this week.

Phil, I thought it was the bride that had all the Dad photos, my how things have changed these days. Hope it goes off okay and you enjoy the day, and your hangover's not too bad either. ;-)

I ran, thought I was going to get rained on after having a dry afternoon, but the spots came to nothing. Had a lovely rainbow as I went over the golf links though.

Sorry to hear about VLM Claire. Hopefully you can defer. Best of luck with the walk. Sounds quite a challenge!

Nice 10k run tonight with group. A different route for a change. All weather run including a wee burst of hailstones.

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
