Hope we all steer clear of accidents. I fell over in the bath while working away on Monday and injured my shoulder. I can dress myself very slowly and it's painful but thankfully running doesn't hurt it and might do some good warming it up. I'm just really careful about where I go so I don't risk falling over.

Well done LD.

I have just done 4 miles to get to 600 for the year. I won't count my chickens either.

Fingers crossed LD, 1000 would be a grand number. I haven’t kept up with my shoulder exercises very well, it might help if the Physiotherapist could watch & tell me if I’m doing them right.

8.4 miles off-road, hilly, muddy and slow. Loved it! 80 miles for the month.

There's been some awesome mileage going on here this year. :)

The jury's still out for me with the class, not quite what I'm used to yoga-wise, but it's not really yoga. I think I'll carry on, at least it'll get me out of the house and see some different faces, especially as we get towards winter.

Yayy 5 miles today gets me to 500 for the year, which was last year's total. And on track for my revised 2020 target of 600. And I got a new distance badge 😊. 19 miles this week which is my highest weekly mileage for ages. Now to bake Halloween cookies with the turtle 😊

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.
