My 3rd highest Jan and would have been 2nd if I hadn’t succumbed to a virus yesterday. Feeling positive for Feb, resting properly so that I can pick up again without any setbacks 🤞

Morning all.

Thanks for good wishes for OH. We had a lovely day.

GWS to all poorly people.

luck to pinktink. I'm also waiting for a shoulder op so will be following with interest.

Will pop out for three this morning to take my Jan total to a nice round number.

If I do all of my planned long run today it will be my second highest January, which surprised me as I lost two week to the lurgy. It could have been my best month ever if I hadn’t been ill.

Viruses putting the brakes on lots of Januarys :(

I hope you can go Corrah. Gingers crossed.

:) for lovely day with Mr Linds.

3.5 hours sleep is not enough.

Last run of January last night. Intervals session - which went quite well considering I've missed the last 3. Same mileage as last Jan but with more longer runs which I'm pleased about.

Hope February is the month when everyone is well again.

GWS Pinktinc. Sounds painful.

Great running, CAZ!

I'm still too grim to workout today but always optimistic for tomorrow. Better now than marathon season anyway.

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.
