Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

Great work C9!

I've done my 4 miles in the sun, along my newly devised quiet route. It was very pleasant, actually.

Couldn't give a card or visit MIL today, so we made a sign and waved it at her window from 2m away.

We dawdled around Portland this morning, choosing the ridiculously windy side first.
Carp, that is brilliant! :-)

I want to go out for a run but I am also cold so I want to stay in under a blanket.

I wish I’d run earlier today, but I’ll make sure I get a routine worked out for the coming week.

Proper dog's bumhole - first time I've ticked the "warm" category for a run this year.

Did the NHS Tesco thing. They gave us all a bunch of flowers for our Mums at the door, then played "simply the best" on the tannoy. Several of us suddenly seemed to get something in our eyes. Then - as we queued for the tills as they couldn't put anything through until 10 - they played Monty Python's "always look on the bright side of life" - presumably realising we'd have a black enough sense of humour not to bother about the "always look not he bright side of death" bits... Appalling to hear the stories from the lass on the checkout about how vile people have been to her particularly when they were trying to stockpile alcohol on Friday night :-(

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.
