I either wear leggings with a pocket big enough for a phone, or I use a flipbelt, or a water bottle belt with a pocket in. I’d never go out running without my phone in case I come a cropper.

Hi Millsey 👋 I’ve lurked in and out of this thread for a couple of years and rarely posted hence my low post numbers - but the people in here are so kind and supportive, you’ll struggle to find a better place on this site.

Just running anything at all is a great effort, keep it up 👏

Hi Millsey great to have you aboard. I’m mostly walking currently but it doesn’t stop me dropping in here everyday :-) don’t worry if you miss several pages of chat either, no one will think you rude

Hello Millsey, have fun & luck with running, not that it’s essential here.

Morning all :-)

Morning all & hello to Millsey.

Another c**p night with the old tinnitus. Am on my third mug of tea, then out the door 🚪 for “fake” parkrun.

Enjoy 😊 your Sunday everyone.

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.
