I had my running kit on all day. Never ran. Too windy.

Morning all. Hope your next run isn’t scuppered :-( & the cold gets lost pronto. Too much pollen?

Weymouth almost full of people. Some, not all (?) toilets are opening for the bank holiday, but not the plastic tat shops. Beach/prom standing room only, but down centre deserted, so I cycled down it for fetchbug just because I could! It’s all weird :-(

Ocho thanks to you ITG & Dipps, (I think) - didn’t know it existed, read it on here & was the work of a moment to peddle down & re-bag the square again :-) thank you both!

I’m going on a rather long walk today. There is a 50 mile trail about 30 mins from me. It’s split into a few stages. Going to do stage 1 which is 10 miles

Morning :-)

Want to run but hamstring niggling, perhaps some easy biking on the turbo and some stretching will be in order instead.

Have a great weekend whatever you have planned.

Have put myself down for a Fetch virtual 10k today. Am going soon as it's round our local reservoir which will be heaving before long. My warm up will go past where people park, so I'll be able to judge the potential foot traffic on the route

I have a lsr on the plan. Maybe I should sign up for virtual half but I tend to stop and start quite a lot on my lsrs so it would be even less county.

Millsey, walk sounds lovely! Winter is back here.

Hope niggles all bugger off promptly.

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.
