Gentle 5 miles in a very wet NF. Lots of mud, puddles, water etc, but also some bright sun.

Spot the path. Disguised as a river



Sun ... and a cold wind. Fortunately behind us


And a sunbathing pony. Well, more interested in th eleaves.


Nearly caught up again.

Oooh I got a notification to say I'd been nominated for member of the month. I've never had that before. :-)

A lovely run with GF today, we did a loop of the lakes near where I used to live before collecting the teen. If all goes well, I should hit my highest ever mileage on Wednesday next week. :-)

Well, the carol service at the tiny rural church was just lovely. About 70 people standing outside in the churchyard, with readings, prayers and lots of carols. Turtle sang her heart out bless her! Something very apt and quite poignant about the pared back simplicity of such a service in these times πŸ˜ŠπŸ§šβ€β™‚οΈπŸ™

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.
