Deer are smarter than you think. They're avoiding you, for sure.

I walked to work this morning and ran home for my first bit of exercise since taking a break since May 25th (asthma and hay fever) so I sympathise with other sufferers!

Just under 7 miles in total and I feel really out of shape which is so unlike me - especially in June.

I may try the same tomorrow just so I can get my ❤️ back, but on the positive side I’ve moved up the table loads with so many reaching the 700 target 😂

Hi all. Congrats on MOTM Dio! bunting

RE that Brooks website, on our club page someone has asked 'Is this legit?' about a website that purports to be selling Garmons really cheaply. A bit of poking around reveals a Hong Kong based outfit and no real history of trading. That Brooks site also, in the T&Cs, claims Hong Kong jurisdiction for arbitration. I shouldn't be surprised if there's a whole warehouse of sports-related fakes waiting for UK purchasers :-(

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.
