Morning

Rest day for me today but a post of yoga to start the day has gone down very well.
Time to WFH

Have a lovely day, 700-ers :-)

Rest day for me, the side of my right foot is aching so I’m being sensible and not running until tomorrow

No digging in the garden ferret - or did you hear a loud bang last night?

Back from my run. The surroundings were lovely as ever, but I seem to be de-training myself - every time I go for a run I'm getting slower! That shouldn't be happening should it? :-0

Back at work with a huge to do list of very boring things. Great to get the kids back at school though!

I'll try to go to the gym here and hope the "borrowed" weights have been returned. Jog later.

Morning all. Sunshine here today.

Run with DD2 at lunchtime, who is optimistically starting her marathon training programme for her first marathon in September *fingers crossed* Will be a good focus for her if nothing else

Hope everyone's grumbly body parts stop grumbling soon.

I decided to have a go at my hilly run today for the first time. I didn't get as far up most of them running as I would have done in my head but pleased that I did it.

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.
