At least it wasn't your bum, Turkish (see Brian May). Gardening is clearly dangerous.

Do all these PhDs make the 700 thread the best qualified thread on Fetch? :-)

Enjoy your Saturday peeps!

Eight miles run this morning, which included my fake parkrun.

It was quite warm on Worthing seafront at 7.15am. Goodness knows how hot it will get as the day progresses.

Must dash, I've got to get the washing machine on.

Morning all.
Stretched lockdown rules a little I think and cycled to Richmond park then ran there. Is that allowed?

Anyway, it was gorgeous, and pretty empty.

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.
