I am sure you didn’t :-) I read your blog while in bed so guess that was the reason for the dream, lovely photo of you as a young woman :-)

Morning all,

Run day today for me. Struggling to motivate myself to get out of the door. I’ll head out later I think!

Will you suddenly be hit by a bolt of motivation later Milsey? :) We have a thread motivator called Sharktopus, sounds like you need his services :)
Kitchen rebound this morning, I’m stiff from tennis yesterday!

Morning. I have decided to bugger off alone for a night (maybe 2). OH agrees. Now just waiting for a good weather forecast!

Take it easy ITG, you’ve had a hell of a year. Regarding your post yesterday, good that teen wanted to talk to you, he’s had a hell of a year too. But made me wonder, who do you talk to when you need to?
Happy birthday mini-Millsey

Donkeys 🙂
Carp how was the new ward?
Tired. But will run anon.

Oh. X-post ITG (got distracted by small person while typing). Some space sounds good, hope the forecast doesn’t contain hail...

Morning 😊. Long family walk day today, and we're raking a newly-allowed picnic 😊😊. Temptation is to head to the Cotswolds or up to the Peak, but we're being sensible and heading for some woods and parkland much nearer to home. Still a little drive, but not to anywhere named or popular. Will be nice to have a little change of scene!

Sounds lovely, TM. Where are you going?
ITG - that sounds like a good move for you. Hugs xx
Carp - how did it go?
Millsey - don’t put it off too long! ;)

Morning everyone!
I’m planning today’s cycling route. It’s a pity there’s nowhere to stop for a drink or cake or anything. We’ll just have to take stuff with us instead.
Still missing parkrun. I fear it could be a long time before we will be able to do it again :(

Um - good question. Does moaning on fetch count? I'm the one everyone else talks to.

Not going away just yet but looking into it. Hoping for a cycle today. If OH ever wakes up, I'll ask him to drive me somewhere from where I can bike back (with wind behind me 😄).

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.
