Your family are doing wonderfully there Columba :)
And yeah my phone also used to think Molesy was molest but I taught it differently. It still autocorrects other stuff to ducking though so it’s a slow learner :)

My Achilles is very sore, limped around the supermarket earlier. It might be me slowing down Dipps instead of the other way round...Not sure if it’s Achilles or the twinge from before Christmas complaining about too many miles. I’ll give it more time off next week.

You did a long run AND scored a goal Andrew? That’s multi-tasking :)

*waves to louise and andrew*

Was lovely to be RD at parkrun for our friend's 250th but it was made all the more lovelier by the surprise appearance of Just Commando and Going Commando with two other friends from Woodley. Very exciting. Fetchie hugs galore :)

Have spent the rest of the day doing domestic stuff and will try and go and do some yoga now.

buntingbunting for todays parkrun PB'ers buntingbunting

feel like I could be photosynthesis at work sometimes, dealing with people who are like vegetables sucking the energy out of you

nearly a pw at parkrun today think this years marathon training is going to be hard work

AR skiing in 2 weeks, Val d'isere again, only 16 of us this time, have been doing plenty of strength stuff i the gym, just doesn't seem to have transferred to running very well

My sister sent me a photo from the restaurant where they were having lunch in Les Gets today and for once, I thought, ooh, I'd like to be there. Only because the 'deckchairs' in the sun looked very comfy though ;-)

Speedy family, Columba!

That's a great parkrun handful from the Columbas run

How lovely Linds :)

Have fun and don't break anything important Phil!

Long day marshalling tomorrow at the XC county champs. Kind of wishing I hadn't volunteered as my back will not like standing for long and my hands and feet probably won't like being outside that long. However, other people marshal for me and it's rude not to.

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.
