Morning!

Dog walk and swim for me today.

I'm currently watching a very sad (and angering) item on BBC about an experienced cyclist who died after his wheel wedged in a ridiculously deep crack in the road. I don't know about where you are but cracks are ten-a-penny round here - road edges seem to fall away and the cracks appear about a metre in from the edge. It's no wonder I'm reluctant to get back on my bike :-(

Daisy that is so sad but not surprised. Roads here are terrible so it doesn't suprise me and with all the leaves on the ground sometimes you don't even see the holes

Morning gonks.

V dodgy heartrate on a steady run Wednesday gave me a nudge that I might be coming down with something. Been knackered since, and feels like an ear infection or similar is taking shape.

Have popped into the studio to do admin, cancelled a 1-1 and hopefully a bit more rest and an easy paced parkrun tomorrow will be OK. Meant to be doing a 10K on Sunday, not overly worried about it but would be nice to have an easy plod round.

bunting for Mandy reaching her cycling target!

I decided not to swim but sort out and take a car full of stuff to the recycling centre, stopping off at a local charity shop to donate some decent stuff en route. There's still a lot of clearing out to do but it felt good to make a start.

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
