    I think I have a few months to go :) I'm at about 800+ (will check in my diary and report back). I'll come back when I get to 1,000.

    Passed it on my long run last Sunday. A couple of weeks later than last year.

    Passed 1000 miles yesterday on an easy run, earlier than any other year.

    I'm at about 940 now, so see you all here in a week or so!

    1000 miles completed today, 9 days earlier than last year.
    Hopefully get to 2000 by start of December.

    Snuck over the 1000 mile mark somewhere in Chapelizod on the way to the Phoenix Park today. DCM training should hopefully see 2000 miles for the first year ever; interestingly when I was in the Novice group for DCM 16 I barely scrapped over 1000 miles sometime in December that year.

    Passed 500 miles today. Delighted with myself :D





    500 to go.......... :o

    Passed 1,500 towards the end of June and 30k on the clock since I returned to running.

    Passed 1000 last week, about 3 months later than the previous few years due to a long series of injuries. One thing I am consistent with however, is not filling out the spread sheet.

    Currently way behind where I should be, my lazy gene is just too powerful, and have another 92 miles to go still... But with a couple of short runs this week I'm on schedule to break 1000 miles at some point in the morning of Sunday as I have a 24 hour event kicking off on Saturday.

    Barring twisting an ankle in a rabbit hole during the night I should make it.

    Passed 1,000 miles this evening, about 2 weeks earlier than last year. I've a bit of ground to make up to pass the 2,000 mark, should get it though.

    1,000th mile on the Clontarf seafront today. A couple of weeks later than last year, might be a struggle to double up by Dec 31!

    Either Strava was lying to me last week, or it's lying to me this week. Not sure which.

    I "only" managed to do 80 miles in my 24 hour event over the weekend so thought I'd missed the 1000 mile for the year mark by 8 miles. Now Strava is telling me that I've done 1070 for the year so far and therefore clocked up the 1000 on lap two when I was still actually doing what you'd recognise as being running.

    I think I'll go with the bigger number and claim the 1000 miles. :D

    Hurray! Passed 1,000 miles about halfway through yesterday's session!


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭Sub430


    1000 done on 24/07. Took me until mid September last year :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,331 ✭✭✭Guill


    Will pass 1000k and last years total (1011) during the R&R half on Sunday.
    If ye see a loud shout that's me :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,754 ✭✭✭ReeReeG


    Passed 1,000 miles tonight, about a month earlier than last year :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,502 ✭✭✭chris85


    1000 miles done yesterday on an easy lunch time run. Definitely much earlier than last year.

    Passed the 1,000 mile mark today, about a month and a half earlier than last year. :)

    Passed the 1,000 mile mark during the week (as did seemingly half of Strava :)). Four months earlier than last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,338 ✭✭✭eyrie


    Seems to be the week for it! 1,000 miles hit today during my easy run. Two weeks later than last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,671 ✭✭✭hillsiderunner


    Me too!

    Hit the target on today's fartlek run.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,745 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Hit this milestone in the past day or two
    First full year of running


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,289 ✭✭✭ariana`


    I hit 1,000 mile this morning. I thought it was going to be a couple of weeks later than last year but when i checked it was actually the exact same day strangely enough :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 735 ✭✭✭Treviso


    Hit the 1000 mile mark for the year on Tuesday. First year running so delighted to hit the milestone. Had a speed session on Tuesday so didn't even realise that I passed the 1000 miles until yesterday!

    My 2000th mile of 2019 was unsurprisingly done while running home from work today.

    A 4 day PB! Here's some nice graphs:
