Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm currently trying to stay positive about this but...

I hurt my back last weekend so can't run. I can manage to walk about a mile, some days a mile and a half at a time.

I've just checked my progress - 250 miles - and where I need to be mid October to still be on track - 290 miles - so that means if I can keep doing 1.6 miles a day, then I'm still on track and hopefully my back will settle by then and I can start running again.

Most days since I hurt my back I have walked once or twice a day and between a mile and a mile and a half each time. So it is still possible to stay on target doing this.

I know I just need to be patient and wait for it to heal but bad backs suck :-(

Oh I am so sorry to hear this Elsie Too, I wish you a speedy recovery. I am sure you will catch up once you are fixed so take it steady.

I am once again behind my recording. Better get it updated for month end.

Sorry to hear that, Elsie. Hope it improves quickly.

Remember that you have until nearly halfway through 2021, so, although the mid-month target may appear pressing, it isn't a question of do-or-die, so you mustn't chase the 290 if you're not up to it.

(Says the participant who is on a cumulative mileage of 157.5 when he should have hit 217.5 last week!)

Lol at Synge.

Thanks for the good wishes. I'm sure a gentle walk each day will help me to recover but you are all right, there is plenty of time to catch up.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery Elsie.

*waves to Synge who's a couple of miles ahead (and feels enormous relief that I'm not the only one who's a bit behind! :-O )
