Diogenes Sep 2023 7:49am, 28 Sep 2023 81,658 posts	0 Diogenes Thanks, Dipps, I was aware of the technique, I was just suggesting you go for a run like that to demonstrate your mastery of the art. I once saw a runner running a race carry a Sony Discman in the palm of his hand like he was a waiter taking a plate with a bill to a table.

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
