But we're all winners! We're on the 700 miles thread! *cheesy smile*

It's not the winning, it's the taking part, etc etc etc. Though it must be a fab feeling to come first, especially if it doesn't happen often. Maybe people who come first often get a bit bored?

One lovely guy at our club said once, "The good thing about being one of the early finishers is you get to clap all your clubmates in" - he really did mean it too, he's a star

That's lovely, LD

Plus I think the people who win a lot start to feel like they've got a target on their back and then have to keep on winning.

Yeah. I've never won anything either, and I never will. Unless you count the 8/9 breast stroke. I still have the trophy for that :)

I won an ashtray in a raffle once.
It was pink.
I was 8.

Welcome to the 700 miles in 2014 thread. Here is the groups link: http://www.fetcheveryone.com/groups-view.php?id=1147

All you have to do is run about 1.92 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.
