Morning all!
Isn’t it kind of weird waking up to glorious sunshine every day? In a good way, of course.
Bike ride this morning - Draycote Water is open again and there’s a very good local food van en route which sells pork and lamb reared on their own farm. Bacon sarnies, anyone?

One bacon sandwich with brown sauce, please, Sarah.

I'm in trouble here... baby has first football game of the season and we are allowed to watch. I thought it was today but it is tomorrow afternoon and I have already booked a running trip away overnight Sun-Mon. He was so excited when he found out yesterday that we are allowed at his games again 😔

Morning all. We have a club challenge this weekend. 30 minutes, run as far as you can. The club is divided into zombies and humans. All runs are then collated, using WAVA to adjust times (are you still following??!) to see if the humans escape! I'm a human. Hoping for around 3.7-3.8 miles.

Morning :-)

Well jealous of the swimmers, still not possible here in Wales. I never thought I'd miss swimming so much. Not running at the moment either with a dodgy hamstring but had a nice early morning walk to compensate.
Enjoy the virtual races this weekend, love the idea of Som's club challenge :-)

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.
