Run done, well quite a bit of walking involved, and stopping and looking at bird life. It was such a beautiful morning for it so I looked in down at the river as well and saw a swan on a nest. :)

Run on rubber legs sounds quite familiar actually PL :)

Off out across fields. No run yesterday because I cycled to do errands instead and I'm sticking to the rules.

Went to bed late and woke up hideously early. Might run, might not.

Run done. Had to stop a couple of times to allow dog walkers to pass each other and probably the most crowded I have noticed for a while.

People were being sensible though.

Lovely 10 mile run this morning. But managed to lose my house keys at some point. They must have fallen out my waist bag without me noticing. Probably when I took out my phone to check the wsw map. Annoying...

Look on the bright side, PH. At least you won't be leaving the house empty all day long.

Indeed. The other problem is that most places that do key cutting are closed at the moment.

Boiling hot run. So nice to be out. I didn't want to come home again but as we hadn't taken water, I couldn't.

PH, that's intensely annoying.

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.
