Ooooh new 700ers :-) *shakes Welcome mat* Hi Dave and Toks!

Great photos :-)

As long as it bluetooths to my phone that's all I need, Badger, as that's what I do now. The parcel arrived while I was out so I shall be spending the evening getting to grips with the 735.

Fab 7 miles along the Cotswold Way this morning. Just need to do that four times in a row and the Bath Beat will be a doddle :-) :-) (I'm allowing for getting a bit lost!)

Hi Toks.
Another great 700 pic.
Great running LD.
My run this morning was so lovely I didn't want it to end.

Had a lovely 8 miles today. Quite hilly but it felt ok. Still very wet here. Took a picture but can't seem to upload it. New phone - no idea how to use it!
Hope you all had a good weekend and if tomorrow is the first day back after the Xmas break, hope it's a gentle run in.

End of Christmas, 3-4kg to lose and my first run of the year today - 7 miles in a rather murky & soggy New Forest. Not so much rain as just 'wet air'. Managed a few treasure hunt pics, but not the full set yet.

Last cross country league race of the season today at lightwater near Bagshot. A lovely hilly muddy event with loads of tea cakes and sarnies for after. I have a London marathon training plan to get my head around soon, but this was as good a place to start as any.

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.
