Morning! I'm at the coffee meetup but I'm ridiculously early so sitting here like Billy No Mates. It's sunny-ish but quite windy so I might not hang on for the others to get here.

Off to the seaside this afternoon. The garden furniture will finally move from a huge bix in the hall to the back garden. I hope it'll be worth the wait :-)

I'm thinking I might have to bin Clanfield on Sunday. I'm nowhere near fit enough.

PS - me and Liebling are not doing Clanfield either. I am still injured and nowhere near starting running again.

Dio: I'm chronically undertrained but probably going to run walk it. If you took that tactic you'd be fine, enjoy the scenery!

My run today was not very enjoyable, and I have a irritable calf muscle. I will play it by ear.

Can you drop down distance? I didn't bother reading the rules

I did look at that, but couldn't see anything either confirming or denying it was an option.

It would be a lot less stressful to drop distance. But less value for money

Welcome to this year’s 700 thread: Amazing cake, amazing badges, amazing people :) Training goals: Don’t cry, don’t die

Links to targets and 700 table below. Reach 700 miles and we’ll heap you with bunting with extra points for bins. And if you go under or over 700 miles, noone will mind. 700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient. Overachievers: please reset your target so everyone gets a spot in the sun heart

Pop a note in the thread or drop me an fmail if you have an event of any type where a bit of encouragement may help.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
