LG, you’ve just summed up exactly how I’m feeling. Not sure whether to dress for a run-walk, or just a walk.

Yeah I think it will be a run/walk and feel no guilt about doing it.

Morning :)

Enjoy your walk Millsey.

One day I will run without walking for more than 2 miles. ;-) I shall go for a run this morning and think I'll do a 10k run on Monday in lieu of the one I should have been doing. All my runs, walk and rides are dictated by where my bug of the day is, usually in the wrong direction but I want to get a 30 day badge for bug clearance. :)

Morning, my lovelies :)
Have some domestic trivia to get done and then I’m going on a dog walk with a friend - something so simple feels like such a treat at the moment!
Have an excellent Saturday everyone! xx

Back from my virtual 10k: 49:34 for a 66% wava - pleased with that :)
Not too busy, so that was good - it was blowy though.
With the exception of an off-road 10k last year, that my first 10k "race" since 2012.

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.
