Yes all that. Today will be sponsored by Costa. Zzzzz
I am taking stuff for a gym class, and planning to swim tonight. I am reminded how soon it is til my Big Race and I need a smidgen more training done!

I have been trying taping my feet, seems to solve blister issues, need to find physio glue? to stick it on better, otherwise it won't last the swim. Hmm.

And well done Sweetie!

Morning :)

bunting Sweetie - stonking PB! bunting :)

Kim, perhaps your trainers aren't big enough, I go 1 1/2 sizes bigger and I used to use ordinary zinc oxide tape (I found Boots to be the best make) before the podiatrist sorted me out.

I hope the marathoners don't have to encounter too many stairs for the next day or two. ;-)

Well done sweetie!!

I've decided that the trainers are too narrow. Adidas tends to be a narrower shoe so think these are just that wee bit too narrow for me despite them being size 7 and I usually wear size 5.

Morning guys!

Well done to all marathoners and anyone else running this weekend!

Loved the marathon yesterday. What a day for a Swansea Harriers. Club runner as first brit home and then that's lovely moment where the gentleman stopped to help another runner!

Morning.

Great running Sweetie. bunting for the PB.

We all tried our best for you AR & ITG. ;-)

Reassuringly legs are moving not too badly today. Tomorrow might be a different matter!
One large blister dealt with last night and one toenail will be leaving in a week or so I suspect. (sorry Fleecy)
Enjoying a relaxing morning internet-pottering and catching up on a few jobs. Might go down to the allotment this afternoon for some gentle stretching :-)

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

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 of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
