Had a day out for work inspecting a failing retaining wall art a reservoir. It was a lovely place to be and nice to get out to meet a few people.

Also managed a quick run before dinner on my hilly 5k time trial course. I'm happy to have managed a run every day this month, but even more so about making sure I do something fun or good training or even both.

I was going to say "I hope that's not my reservoir with a failing wall" and it turns out it is :-O

Although my water doesn't come from there, but a more limescale source, presumably the Downs.

Morning all 👎. Needless to say, I’ve been awake for ages. ☕️time.

I hope everyone has a nice stress free day.

Aw David, did you manage to speak to your GP for more medication?

Morning folks, not sure how I feel today as still in bed but I do know I have a sore back and I ache across my shoulders FFS :-( I need a decent massage

Lizzie, the problem there doesn't affect the dam or water supply, just access to the lake for some rowers

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.

If you do reach 700 miles before the end of the year, please reset your targets, so others can keep moving up the table :-)
