I pulled on my big girl pants, as they say, and went out to meet a local group of runners. Ed, Duncan and Jade turned up this evening, there are another couple who also run occasionally and another new woman, Helen, who is hoping to come along soon. 5k around dark country lanes that I would never have run along by myself - we all had head torches (thank you all for my recent MOTM prize!!) - and lots of very encouraging chat about the area and running routes and parkruns. It was, and they were, lovely.

C seemed particularly relieved when I returned with a big smile on my face. I think I’ve been rather tiresome lately with my struggles to settle in and we are both hopeful that this will be a big step (pun intended) in the right direction.

Great news Paula. I’ve generally found running my best opportunity to meet people following moves.

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
