Hi Adrian, leave your sanity at the door.
Carp - what a great antidote to your week.
Linds - why don't you order a home testing kit, much nicer than the testing centres, and much less stressful.

Errr. Nothing else to say, really. Tomorrow I hope to break 1100 miles. Can't believe it's me saying that!

Hi Adrian! :)

Carp, I'd loved to have seen that. :)

Wow TeeBee!

I got out on my bike, ended up at the river which had overflowed and filled all the fields up. I saw a little vole swimming then it popped out and sat on a fence drying itself off. heart

Another one creeping towards 700 here. 19 miles to go. Think I'll be ok ;-)

Running mojo mostly recovered. Give me an excuse to get out and look for Zombies. Proximity to Bracknell means this is not as outlandish an idea as some might think. :-)

I ran after work. This is a big deal for me these days. It was dark and raining. I did not die; I did not cry.

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.
