I went for a run. Built in several tactical walking breaks and also a cO op to replenish liquids and also cut it down to 8k rather than 10k so feel pleased with myself

heart to all the lovely 700ers, whatever your doing today.
I undertook my marshal duties this morning - luckily in the shade and by the river. It was lovely.

Afternoon all. I've missed lots of posts, so just hope everyone is doing ok heart
I didn't sleep well last night and I was so sure I would. Too hot and too noisy with traffic by The Premier Inn. I'm home now so should get a decent sleep tonight 🤞I'm blogging Tough Mudder in parts; it was too big a day for one blog :)

Another 8 miles done. An out and back at beach. Like an oven on the way out. Felt like gale force winds on the way back. A tough one.

Also seem to have tweaked my back yesterday. Seems fine running thankfully. Hope it eases off soon.

Hi Wezza, welcome back :-)
Linds, that's amazing! :-o swim
Hugs for ITG (gentle ones, obvs!)
Well done Kim and any other mad monkey who ran today.

I may run later. But for now, I am on the sofa. Brilliant weekend in Jersey. Fitted a lot in, in under 48 hours. A nod is in order.

Im almost certain GimmeMincepies tough mudder should be on the hall of fame for something: most time in the field perhaps

It is pouring here - if it stops soon I might run, but we do have thunder and lightning ⛈️ so maybe not!

ITG 🇮🇸
Funny, AL, just started absolutely pelyting it here too! I am sitting in car (OH driving) after a swim. At least until I get a rotator cuff injury, I can do that.

bunting for Pothunter's ultra, and additional bunting for 700. To judge by that bin, you were a mere stone's throw from where Elder Daughter and her family live.

Well done on the fresh start, ThorntonRunner Which reservoir is it? (I grew up in Leicester).

Wonderful midsummer sunset photo, Som. Do I gather you're running the parkrun alphabet? As I understand it, Exeter is acceptable for X, and you may have to go to Poland for Z.

bunting for Daisy's 200th parkrun. Only another 50 and you get a new T-shirt.
Also bunting for Idris's 100th parkrun.
ITG - depending on how bad the sprain is, that ankle could take quite a long time to recover. Maybe the disc will recover as well, while you're resting the ankle.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
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
