I am enjoying walking. Targets are neither necessary etc. I walked past a trail race this morning, remembered the feelings, felt mildly envious then trotted off down the hill... I'd like to be able to run without the intermediate stages. I might try it when I've shifted some excess mass.

Hugs to all who need them.

Been out on my hybrid to help with the grumpiness - cancelled my hotel for the ride 100 last night and sick of trying to shift weight without success. Didnt get to go paddleboarding this morning as there were so many swimmers in the harbour making the most of the flat sea and good weather and I didn't want to get in the way.

BBQ and a couple of drinks now should help

Had OWS intro session today which was great.

J was Run Director today at parkRun as part of his DoE volunteering. Just as he was saying " And this is a no dog parkrun", the dog from the Sport's Bar wandered into the scene! Cue lots of laughter from the runners!
J did very well especially speaking in front of unknown people.

parkrun done; still keeping it below 45 minutes; age grading was 59.95%, now where was that other 0.05%?
The curlywhirly looks interesting. Next time I'm staying with Younger Daughter in Bristol....
Good luck to all racing tomorrow, even if they intend to treat it as a run not a race.

Morning 700ers heart
I’ve had porridge and am in a state of pre race excitement, despite being prepped to walk a lot of it
It rained very hard at 5 but I can hear the birds tweeting now

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
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.
