Afternoon ๐Ÿ˜Š. First of 4 night shifts tonight. On the plus point, they are the only shifts I'm doing in the school hols (Turtle has gone for sleepover with my parents). On the downside it's my wedding anniversary and work prevents any celebration. Enjoy the weather x

Well done anyway ITG! Having read Dio's blog today I'm rather glad I opted out of WSW, Fetchpoint and the like. All too complicated and in a way, limiting for me.

I ran to the little park with a vague 'running loop' laid out and did some very short intervals. Seriously, I had to edit my training log entry to 33m to show the intervals properly ;-)

I was given a real morale boost by another lady using the loop to walk round. She complimented me on how fast I was running. When I said that I couldn't keep it up though, she said 'Never mind, you looked amazing and really fast!' What a nice woman :-)

Aw, so nice when people say things like that, LD :)

As for WSW, fetchpoint etc... but BADGES. You get BADGES.

Happy anniversary TM. :)

ITG, I think you should see a physio or someone to get an assessment before you think of trying running again, maybe a good sports massage would help too.

Good running, those that managed to get out and do it today.

I went to the beach on my bike, it was very busy but just like a good summer's day. I managed 3 dips in the sea, it was lovely. :)

It's on my todo if it doesn't improve, AR. The one who saved my back is great.

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.
