Well done Yumeel Fab outfit Corrah. I hope your foot goes down soon Daisy :(

Our walk today took us through a deer park


I stupidly wore slip on shoes without socks and got blisters on the backs of my heels.

A happy May here at the zoo (not an actual zoo, just seem to have lots of beasties here). 132.5 miles ran, 25 miles walked. A PB for miles ran in a month. :-)

Plan for tomorrow is a few miles to kick the month off, then on Tuesday we're heading out early to the peaks for a wander. We live nearby but I've not been since lockdown. GF knows a good route that's out the way so I'll make a picnic and we'll head out for around 7 miles.

Have a lovely day in the Peaks, Som, sounds great.
Morning all :-) I should run, 1st of the month, but might take bike out as I’m awake before the traffic.

Morning :-)

I may be kidding myself, because I haven’t tested this in any way, but I feel like yesterday’s bike ride might have done my bad calf some good. Also, I am not walking like John Wayne this morning, which is a pleasant surprise.

Morning :)

That sounds lovely Som and ferret.
Think I'll pop down the beach for a couple of hours, I'm sure it will be quite different down there today.

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.
