You’ve only ever been a good thing on here Yumee. I like seeing all you higher flyers on the table for the early part of the year. But do whatever works, target wise, and do stick around. That goes for all of you :-)

And that sounds a really good result CStar, well done DD2 and DS2

Your OH CStar? I’m sorry to hear that, but glad the not-exams have been survived.

The first time I aimed for a target was 500 so the natural progression was to 700. I achieved on my 3rd year and I'm now on my 6th year. Something seems to come along and scupper me most years and I really thought that this was the year as I wasn't away half the winter skiing. Life just gave me a pain in the arse instead. :)

It's nice having the high hitters joining us before we send them on their way once they've hit 700, especially when they stay in the thread for the chat. :)

CStar, sounds like life is going to be a bit more settled for you then, good the kids are doing so well. :)

Hugs, CStar. Not easy stuff (())

I was late for the train so had to run the mile to the station like hell, putting on a mask after that was horrible!

I don't pay any attention to where anyone else is target wise - far too focussed on my own attempt! Its just lovely to hang out in here.

I started the original 1000 mile thread back in the day (probably about 12 years ago now!) when I was running much more. That feels like an entirely other lifetime....!

Sounds like it's a positive step CStar. Glad the teens have survived.

I like it here and I don't want anyone to leave.

ION I ran 8 miles. Some of it with Louise
