(((((TM and LD)))))

Spoke to coroner today no cause of death yet, but they will be issueing a temporary death certificate so that the cremation can go ahead on the 12th May
Visiting Dad every day, trying to maintain some form of distancing, finding it so much easier to talk about her, but there are still things thta seem to set you off, for my youngest sister (who has been staying with dad since 15th April it is talking to my youngest brother

Have managed to cycle or run every day this week just short of 15 run miles, and 40 bike miles since monday.

More run miles in April than all the prevoius 3 months together, and to think I should have been running that London Marathon on Sunday

Phil, TM, Daisy, - hugs, commiserations - the whole situation is so abnormal, people can't even grieve properly.

Happy birthday to CStar's 3rd. Maybe have a delayed birthday party later in the year.

Just a little walk for me. Logged it anyway.

Hugs to everyone, and extra tighter ones to those who are having a particularly tough time.

Goodnight all

Will miss giving you a proper hug on Sunday Phil. Much love to you and your family.

Well done Linds run

Night shift seems simultaneously non-stop and crawling. How is it only 11:30pm? It feels like it ought to be tomorrow.

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.
