I always wear pants to match my dress. I might have to put a baby photo up soon of my great-nephew, when they send me one.

Fetchie meet for me today, but we're going for a walk, not a run. :)

A long day in the virtual car today – 320 miles and 6 hours. So not much text today. And no guidebook help either.
Plus a mountain to climb and a river and falls



Well – it’s back to Portland, but taking in Mt Hood (11,250ft) and then on to the south bank of the Hood River. But the whole route is forests lakes, waterfalls, hills/peaks. Could have spent the whole time here.
Mt Hood, is in theory walkable, but is snow covered all year, and guides indicate 4-7 hours up and the same down. So we’re too pushed for time for that.




Then on, via canyons to the Hood River and multiple waterfalls.




Then on the the Portland Downtown Waterfront Marriott – where it all started. And some more free lounge food.

For sale : Pacific Coast Highway Road Trip – California, Oregon & Washington. Hardly used. 1 careful owner. Very low mileage.

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.
