:-( Linds

Another 4 and a bit mile walk today. Before lockdown I'd been considering seeing someone about my knee- was feeling twisted and painful when I ran and for several days afterwards. Walking doesn't seem to aggravate it but there is a very low level niggliness there. I'm a bit worried it's arthritis, but surely I'm not old enough for that!

So no running, but lots of walking, mix of tarmac and trails

Hope it goes away, WA [waves witchy wand]
Not quite a pb; I meant 8 seconds slower than my pb. But would have been huge wava pb.

Bootcamp is magic. Why do you think I've been banging on about it for 4 years :-)

I went out on my bike today and got as far as one of my favourite walking areas. I was surprised to see the fish stall open and was sorely tempted to buy some scallops but I didn't have any money on me. I'll try again another day.

Like Som, I saw a few smaller groups of cyclists too and thought that they didn't look like they were from the one household either.

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.
