These days when I get up I just think 'running, dog-walking or gardening?' and dress accordingly (sometimes the same clothes do for all three ;-) )

Fantabulous jaunt up on the hill, the larks were singing their little hearts out and I spotted yet more wildflowers that I've probably passed many times before but these days I'm working on 'taking notice' and the countryside round here repays that in spades :-)

Only annoyance was my Garmin playing up at the start, and failing to capture my first (and possibly steepest!) half mile. No idea why, it said it had GPS when I set off.

At least they've got trousers on ITG !

Did bigwig ask for the book to be signed, or had you already done that?

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.
