Sadly I can’t run with TeeBee this morning as someone put razor blades in my throat :(

Morning

Sorry for poor attendance to the thread

Finally got my garmin to connect to computer so have uploaded my running. Had about 7 weeks of consistent training. Still the odd issue with my back, but not as bad as last year.

Hope everyone is well and safe

GWS, Fleece!
Paula, define "need"? Do you have to do the runs?

ITG - it’s for our virtual Summer League and every run earns points. As the smallest club we need every single point we can get. And I’m the outgoing Summer League rep and have been encouraging all the members to get running so, morally speaking at least, yes.

I’m sure I’ll be fine once I get out there. It’s not going to be fast or pretty but I can do it. I might even discover where I left my mojo!

Morning all.
I slept for about 5 hours last night and spent from 4 am messaging my daughter (who was feeding Riley Rose), online shopping, reading and making lists.
Have nearly got Mo packed for our holiday. Sainsbury’s delivery coming later and then I will be visiting E and RR while waiting for Mr W to finish work before we set off.

Hope you feel better soon, Fleecy.
Sure your runs will be fine, Paula x

At least the heat has broken so a run should be a bit more bearable Paula.

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.
