Evening all. No running yet (wont have chance until 3rd at earliest) but the year has started well. Lovely morning/lunch/walk with the turtle round a local NT property (soo busy!) then the maybe friends turned into actual friends who came over, played board games (well the kids did while friend and I refereed) and then my friend cooked us all dinner 😊. Bedtime for turtle took 2 fkn hrs but now I have wine, Fetch, and Bridget Jones 😄

Happy New Year 700er’s

Double parkrun with a run between them means just over 12 miles. Nice start.

Then post run coffee & cake. Majorly over ran in time. Not great as cooking 3 courses for 8 people! Thankfully nobody bothered it was an hour later than planned and went really well.

You are correct. I thought they’d all done loads. Surprised it was just 50.

I’m on 98 after today :)

Gee I thought they would have done loads more too. 98 well done you.
Think I might not be able to do Sat as I have Alfie for a sleepover unless we walk with the tailwalker. He has a Fitbit now so it could be insentive

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.
