ITG I could do with another team to support. :-) Can I be mascot?

I'm off to the post office to send a couple of orders out. It's a bit rainy. I like a wander in the rain.

8.5 miles done with not-a-parkrun in the middle with two friends and a dog. Lovely. One of the friends even brought coffee. Got soaked on the way home.

Another hard fought victory against a team of trolls. Our lot were much better but they were massive and shoved our babies around.

Team banana undefeated! 10 points from 4 games (plus 2 more pre-qual wins). Last group game tomorrow but they have already secured spot in quarters. My blood pressure is sky high!

Well, I swam. It wasn't pretty (I've lost swimming 'strength' somehow - probably by not swimming for nearly six months ;-) ) and it wasn't long by any means, but it was fun :-)

Finally had news that my ultra (London Revolution Trails) that was postponed from May to September, has been re-postponed until May 2021.

Iโ€™m quite relieved as my original plan had been to get as many long training runs as possible done at races/events, I wasnโ€™t looking forward to doing all of them on my own.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: 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. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.

If you do reach 700 miles before the end of the year, please reset your targets, so others can keep moving up the table :-)
