um πŸŽ„
Seems there won't be any NF runs for me for the rest of the year (as they've gone to Tier 3). Unless I take a final few tomorrow and Xmas day. Unlikely.

I did 2 months in a row in K’s and mostly stuck to the distance. I enjoyed but but going into a 3rd for me was just too much and so when I got ill last week I then knew enough was enough and it didn’t bother me to stop.

Columba
Good news on the sales, Som.

Did 4 emergency Foodbank deliveries today. This entailed carrying heavy bags, and in one case up a flight of stairs, which seemed like enough exercise for the day.

Well done Columba, food banks are so important πŸ’• If I didn't love her enough, my Sal took an item back to a shop that she didn't need and with the refund spent the money on food for the local food bank.

In other news, we did the 10K and Sal got a PB!! She had never gone under 57 before and managed 56.56. The weather was very windy and wet so we're both amazed!!!

We only had two foodbank deliveries instead of the usual 4-5 but they'd asked for extra volunteers this week.

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.
