Was definitely too optimistic earlier in the week. Managed 5k this morning and might try again tomorrow if it’s raining, but getting back on track will have to wait a week or two.

If the tree surgeon says it’s an elm, Turtle, I don’t doubt it is.

Met some of the club in the park for a strength session. Spent a lot of time talking about which food places nearby are doing the best deals.

Loads of rain here this evening. Turtle loved the lightning! Lovely dinner with my parents for Dad's birthday tomorrow. Glad we had it here in the end... I don't mind cooking and we could easily retreat indoors! TP is just driving them home and turtle has only just gone to bed. Oops, mummy fail 🤣.
Wishing the rain to migrate wherever it's wanted!

Busy but in a good way day :-) hope the turtles sleep in.
Morning all :-) - send unwanted rain here, it’s crispy dry & brown & I can’t see any on the radar. Edinburgh based daughter sent some stunning electrical storm pics, but also sad news from further north.

Morning all.
Not much rain here last night.
Last day of work today before having next week off. Have decided to take tomorrow off too and give myself time to pack at a leisurely pace before we leave at teatime tomorrow.
Test driving a new car for youngest this evening - fingers crossed all is OK and we can buy it.

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.
