Columba May 2020 6:43pm, 9 May 2020 19,720 posts	0 Columba Possibly some kind of salad leaves? No running today but had a lovely lovely walk with sheets of bluebells stretching away as far as the eye could see. I was afraid I might have left it until too late in the season, as some of you have been reporting that bluebells are going over, but they're still rioting away here.

um May 2020 7:06pm, 9 May 2020 2,349 posts	0 um Carps - any background to the source? Looks similar (but maybe unlikely) to spinach shoots? (as well as probably 100s of other plants at that stage). We did another walk today, since it seemed quite hot and a bit muggy. Have blogged the route, with pics fetcheveryone.com/blog/43889 Why is it that walking seems to tire me more than running? I know running 'tires' me at the time and for about an hour after, but walking (eg 10m yesterday, 9m today) seems to shatter me for the rest of the day. Or is it the beer or 2 afterwards. At home, as unfortunately, no pubs these days for emergency hydration on route.

Turtlemama May 2020 11:10pm, 9 May 2020 892 posts	0 Turtlemama Evening! Had a lovely day yesterday after a short post night shift snooze. VE day party with 1940s music, bubbly and cake and bunting (and a large Welsh flag flying from a bean pole) and today a 6.5 mile walk with family, then gardening and pizza dinner. Running tomorrow when it's cooler, probably!
Carpathius May 2020 11:26pm, 9 May 2020 19,492 posts	0 Carpathius It was mystery seeds inside a mother's day card that my nephew made at nursery. I haven't run, yet again, despite having today off. I just couldn't muster up any energy or enthusiasm after we lost Splodge this morning

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.
