Love that :)

Just watched The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert (available for 24 hours only on Youtube). Haven't seen it before, would like to see it properly eventually.

Morning :)

Carp, was that the anniversary one? I recorded it a few years ago and have watched it a few times - brilliant!

Morning! Not-parkrun run for me this morning in the rain so hopefully that'll make the streets nice and quiet.

I am beginning to despair of some people in the club who seem to think they are 'special' and can wriggle round the lockdown. Not got my Saturday off to the best start, frankly. What's so hard to understand about 'Stay at home, stay local, avoid inessential travel'? The folk I'm thinking of live within half a mile of quiet country lanes but they think it's fine for them to drive out to their preferred run location. If they lived in the middle of a big town or city I could possibly see their point but they don't, they're just seeing themselves as more special than everyone else.

Sorry, that's a bit of a rant. :-(

Morning :-)

*waves to Trin*

Today is about hill reps.
But first, some housework.

Have a great day, 700-ers! Sorry that I'm really not keeping up x

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.
