I’d forgotten about the NDW100 too. Is there a map with dots tracker or only the page that I found that shows when the runners have gone through a checkpoint?

20 mile round trip on my bike for an hour on a beach and a swim. It was cloudy most of the time - just as well as it's so hot.

Bint kept that one quiet, I see that PP was also in but went out after 5 1/2 hours.

*shakes pompoms* for Bint and Dave.

Gosh it's a bit hot for the NDW 100 :-0 Hope all Fetchies are safe and well!

At our core team get-together at the park (not the parkrun park!) cafe this morning it was clear that none of us is expecting to be back parkrunning at our venue till well in to next year at the earliest. Our winter course would be a social distancing nightmare and even assuming we get no tourists and some people choose not to return to parkrun, we're still looking at hundreds of runners. I was quite relieved that the others were as unenthusiastic as me ;-)

Is there a thing like WAVA to correct for the effect of ambient temperature? Walked 5 miles today and it felt like twenty. Even that needed pints of water, cheese sandwiches and a tea + cake stop.

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.
