um 🎄 Dec 2020 4:29pm, 24 Dec 2020 3,929 posts	0 um 🎄 Sorry to hear that Sarah. Hope you've got good memories. ITG - is she back in favour? For me, probably last run of the year in NF - it will be out of bounds (different tier level) from Boxing Day, even if only a mile or 2 down the road. Very cold, 3C or so at most with a chilling north wind. So to end on a wet note - this is the path, not the pond. All the pics - too many for here or a blog. Donks, puddles, deer (distant), trees, same fonks on the way back & some ponies. And more 'wet'. Hope to be back in 2021, when vaccinated or things are clearer/safer without the threat of covid photos.app.goo.gl Oh - less than 10 miles to go now.

All I want for Christmas is Woo Dec 2020 5:26pm, 24 Dec 2020 13,048 posts	0 All I want for Christmas is Woo Thanks, everyone. I have loads of happy memories. She was the heart and soul of Leamington parkrun and a very special person.
Columba Dec 2020 5:26pm, 24 Dec 2020 20,678 posts	0 Columba That's very sad, Sara. Turtle - bad news on the toothache but brilliant news on prompt arrival of toy. Photoset 700 waving awe in LG's direction because of early morning run on snow. I wouldn't have run on that surface (let alone at that time). Walk, yes, but not run. 2 mile run done. Cold, but a few beams from the setting sun cheered it up.

((SW)) I got out on my bike at lunch time but had to cut short due to a flat tyre. What a time to get one, not sure when bike shops will open again and only 12 miles left on my target.

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.
