Not even broken. Might be an infection but he has no fever so no antibiotics.

Now I can finally go out for my run having been on oncall taxi service all day.

How would you describe a stubbed toe, Millsey?

It’s more how you described which surgeons he felt he would get at 5am on a Sunday 😂

Good to see Som back on this thread fairly regularly.

Sympathy for 5bar David. When you have a night like that, do you manage to compensate with a nap during the day?

Went for a walk. Bit over 3 miles. Went through the Rock Park; had a drink from the chalybeate spring, and nibbled a young beech leaf *foraging for survival*

:-) Nice to have time to be back on regularly and to have my love of running back properly. We had a lovely 11.4 mile run - there were lots of groups of people on bikes, either households of 8/9 people are common or people aren't bothering with rules. We had to stop a couple of times due to "family" groups being all over the (wide) trails. A bit frustrating but nice to get my longest run of the year done and overall it was gorgeous out. :-)

Today's pentup frustration did me good. I not-a-park-runned in 23.20 - 8 seconds off a very old pb and not even wearing my Nike cheat shoes. I also ran 21km yesterday so I'm not exactly rested.

Bit sad to be "in form" when there are no races for months.

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.
