Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Morning :-)
Headed over to Brynaman parkrun but it was cancelled because of ice - completely the right call, it was like an ice rink, but no time to fit in anything else as I'm of off to Andover to stay with friends for the weekend.

My legs feel all disappointed now :-(

Have fun all runners and racers this weekend.

Well done Jayfire, I love post-last-nightshift runs. Hopefully you're asleep now!

Yay SW :) :)

Dry but cold parkrun, first on the winter park this year. Not as fast as it ought to have been but I ran the hill both times which I haven't done for about 2 years.

Parkrun was loopy this morning - our previous highest attendance was around 525, but today we had over 570. :-o It was actually lovely, cold but sunny. Ran with the woman, cookies and hot chocolate after. Now off to see a shop to see if they'll stock my printy stuff.

luck with the shop Som :)

That sounds like a good improvement Carp :)

Shame Sweetie :(

I have jogged around the fields and into town for the shopping. It's still a lovely day, I really should be doing something useful in the garden.

Nice longer run done. Really cold and windy when first started but then it was not too bad.

My chum has just become the most northerly Race Angel :-) . She will be at the Stirling marathon giving support

Well done to your Race Angel friend LG, appleapple for Yumee and well done all runners and ravers :-)

Nine and a bit miles ticked off the plan this morning, and by breaking it down into three parts it didn't feel too bad really. Still a long way from 26 miles though :-0 Good news is that my foot barely complained at all.

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.
