I've done it - bang on 700 miles for 2011 :-)

had a lovely run - didnt do the planned route up at Loch Katrine as the cloud is very low to-day - and I wouldnt have had the views over the loch to Ben Venue (pr venoo) so stuck to my local area.

it wasnt too bad actually. due to fetchpoint I have found a way out of my estate via the woods, then linked up to the golf course which then took me over to a wee loch in another bit of woods, did a loop there and headed back the same way. I will upload a photo at some point - my computer isnt doing it for some reason!

Well done Star, you are err, a Star! :) Perfect timing and pacing through 2011 to hit your target exactly on time (the rest of us that hot 700 miles all finished off too early :-o) :)

Good going FML, did you take on any fuel during your run?

Lovely pic Star.

What exactly is that statue supposed to represent?

:-O @ PP finishing off too early. I refer you back to your previous posts re wearing your garmin in bed and your analysis of your own performance.
