[Dipps, I'm going to be going from Havant, more trains per hour including one that gets me to Portsmouth at the ideal time. I haven't bothered telling the other Seren about this.]

I *think* i may drive all the way. Ive booked a gym induction at pyramid centre and he said resignedly i could just pop in and use shower, i think he knew my game :-)

I drove the first couple of times I did it, but it just takes so long to get away afterwards

Looks like it will be a lot colder here from tomorrow onwards. Am considering how many layers I will want for the 10 mile on Sunday. Will experiment at parkrun tomorrow

I am actually quite excited about Sunday’s race - don’t think I’ve done one before where I am properly trying to target a time.

Happy birthday AL! Durham is lovely, nice break for you :)
Still pondering logistics for Sunday. I usually go for fish and chips afterwards and by the time I've done that the crowds have died down. Though last year I took the train and stopped at a very nice pub en route to the station, also meant the crowds had gone!

Welcome to this year’s 700 thread: 700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient. Training goals: Don’t cry, don’t die

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+ Overachievers: well done and please reset your target so everyone gets a spot in the sun heart Tag me to add an event of any type to the list below where a thread cheer would help
