Got out for a run this evening, it was lovely. Then kitchen rebound while dinner cooked. My bit for the NHS has been helping FM with her studies as she’s still on her course though expecting to be pulled, a bit like Carp. No idea how anyone can concentrate in this scenario. If you need any help Carp let me know!

So sorry to hear that TM (())

Another awful day at work. Was meant to be working from home. Summoned into work before I even got out of bed. Sigh.

Club training session was scheduled to be hills this week. Surprised myself and actually did solo hill reps.

We had to fill in a global online survey at work today asking your skills in various depts extra so I guess that could mean you could be pulled to somewhere else :-(

Think that was one of the 120 emails in my inbox this morning too. At the moment I’d love to be in another department. Hate going into work just now.

*drops pile of hugs into thread*
I thought I had had a grim day, but others here have clearly had worse. My run definitely helped. Have also had a Zoom family chat with Mum and my bro.

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.
