Hi Cheeky's Dad.

I've had a lazy ass day after a rubbish night's sleep and early alarm call from some dork doing his hedge a few door's down this morning. I got out for a little wander so have still managed a walk or run every day of lockdown. Phew. 5 mile virtual club race tomorrow. Eek.

Thanks everyone!

TeeBee - the profile pic is Alfie, one of the dogs (obvs😂) Cheeky is my boy. It was his nickname when he was little and it stuck, even now he's a massive, rugby playing, nearly 17 year old!

Haha is be wary of calling him Cheeky but he sounds great :-) Hello!
Morning all :-)

I like the sound of the walks, might persuade mr to walk instead of ride on a new route that we can access by leaving our bikes in swim-buddy’s garden.

Horrified by the house invaders yesterday :-0 but you’re far enough away for it to be funny

Morning :) sunny here but still pretty breezy. I have DOMS. Wanting to go out for a run, but waiting on a load of washing finishing first.

Popping in to say hi..

Dog walk done, with a very sore big toe that I thought I had broken yesterday. New rowing machine built yesterday and used very briefly. Now need to sort out some sort of training plan for the different workouts.

Hope your all keeping well

Morning :)

MM, there is a rowing thread somewhere and they have lots of training plans linked.

Bike ride for me today, trying to keep away from the masses.

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.
