Morning. I was woken, as so often, by the sound of OH grinding his coffee beans. As our radio alarm clock display no longer works (yes, we should get a new one) I assumed it was time to get up. 6 am. FFS. :-)

Anyway, today should be a good one: I'm cycling to meet son1 while he's out on his run this morning. First time to see him in the flesh since the end of Feb :-0 (He's been limited to walking their dog as his exercise until now, as his partner is a doctor in mental health services so has worked (very) full time throughout this period. )

Morning all.
I’ve been up a while too - woke up at 5 and couldn’t get back to sleep.

I have watered the garden and pots, out a load of washing on and had my breakfast.

It’s bike ride day today so hoping that the sunshine lasts until this evening.

Morning :)

Feeling rather creaky this morning after my back went a bit funny while weeding yesterday, followed by a run. I'm off out on my bike some time today and just see where I end up. Maybe a little walk this evening too. :)

Morning :-)
Been for a moderate amble about. Slept not brilliantly. Long day ahead. Walk planned later.
Hope you made some headway Linds
And more hugs for Photoset

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.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
