I have done 4 marathons. Normally I find I need to take 10 years off before I can face doing it again. Somehow I think 100 might be beyond me!

Amazing marathon running! I’ve never run a marathon although I’ve walked a few (Moonwalk) and done a couple of ultras. I’m considering an ultra for my next big birthday as I did this for my last one.

Gorgeous photo MM. Happy travels.
Sombrero I like your thinking - although the training for that sounds tough ;-)
And all you lovely 700ers are brilliant, whether you've done 0 or 600 marathons heart

Morning! Hoping to get my race done and dusted this morning before the 'really intense downpours' - weather lady on TV - start up.
Slept so badly last night - awake from 12:30 for about three hours - I might crawl under a tree and have a nap if the rain does start while I'm out on the course!

Morning all. Lake Vyrnwy half for me this morning. I have not done enough training and predict that it won’t be pretty 😁

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
