I sympathise LG, I should be with friends in the South of France :-( I must get on with claiming my refund from Easyjet. However prompted by GimmeMedals' blog the other day, I ordered a new garden sofa set last night so at least we can enjoy our garden in comfort this summer!

Morning all. Back from s run where I pushed too hard. Silly me, now a ball of sweat (sorry TMI).

Sweaty non hugs (probably a good thing) to all feeling meh, taking one day at a time and missing holidays. heart

Morning all. I'm not running atm but managed to walk 80 miles in April. The Something beginning with... thread is getting me out more than I would have done otherwise

Morning all.
The sun is shining again, thank goodness.
We're about to get a full refund for our May holiday and I'm tempted to buy some new garden furniture with it. Don't tell Mr W yet though ;)
Another run day today and a visit to E (my eldest) to have a socially-distanced chat and take her some 'new baby' parcels.

Morning :)

Non-hugs from this direction too.

I have undertaken to reduce my intake of rubbish from today and increase my exercise a bit to try and get rid of the extra kilos since I came home 4 weeks ago.

I'm quite surprised , the lack of exercise I've done

Hasn't turned into a weight gain.

Yesterday I set myself a target of running to easy and just for as long as I could manage. That turned out to be 12 min at 18 min miles. The ground was sludgy but still. I’m considering myself a work in progress and at least my foot is unbothered. I did too it off with some 4 min on 4 min off jeffing but none of that explains why I was so tired I was almost sick when I got back

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.
