2018 - 1000 Mile Challenge

Classic21 · 05-06-2018 9:41am

Made it to 1000 miles on Saturday during the Rock and Road Marathon in Kinvarra. Three months ahead of last year!
Recovery time for a couple of weeks then a slow build for DCM

skyblue46 · 05-06-2018 5:23pm

Passed 1000 on Sunday....a bit of an improvement on last year when I passed it during DCM.

Swashbuckler · 05-06-2018 9:14pm

Passed the mark on Saturday in the Kingdom. Nice landmark. Here's to another 1000.

davedanon · 13-06-2018 8:08pm

Hit 1k last night. Ironically, it was a 'no watches' predict-your-time club 5k race. So, in the Strava universe, it didn't happen!

ArtieFufkin · 14-06-2018 9:12pm

2000 logged at some point yesterday. A lot more to come if I can stay injury free

Jakey Rolling · 24-06-2018 5:42pm

Passed the 100 mark about 11 hours in the Belfast 24.

1,000 miles completed Saturday during a holiday run in the Dolomites. 17 days earlier than last year.

Feck you Murph, had my eyes on a top 20 but took days off to rest my knee.

Congrats btw

Wottle · 11-07-2018 11:04pm

And that's a wrap, only the 3rd time completing, 2 years in a row now and fastest time getting to a 1000.

OOnegative · 12-07-2018 12:11pm

Passed 1,000 miles Tuesday, over 4 months quicker than last year!!

davedanon · 15-07-2018 12:38pm

Bit of a bittersweet experience, overtaking a becalmed Krusty...

TFBubendorfer · 31-07-2018 7:19am

And ... 2000!

Could have been sooner but I just took 3 weeks completely off for recovery.

Wow! Well done.

Hit 1,000 during my lunchtime run yesterday! End of July versus mid November last year :eek:

Are you the first Boardsie to hit that mark this year? Well done.

Nope, merely number three (of the ones who log their miles in that spreadsheet, that is)

Huzzah! · 03-08-2018 8:48am

Passed through the 1,000-mile mark last night on my run - about a month ahead of last year.

The Black Oil · 03-08-2018 9:29pm

Passed it last Sunday. Wouldn't have thought to check only for this thread.

hot buttered scones · 06-08-2018 1:56pm

Finally reached 1000. Over 2 months later than last year, and a month later than the year before.

diego_b · 07-08-2018 5:47pm

Hit 1000 miles over the weekend, original plan for the year would have had me hit in early June some but got there eventually. Last year it was mid October.

boydkev · 09-08-2018 10:34am

Passed the 1000m mark during my 11 mile run this morning, So that is about 1.5 months earlier (26/09/17) from last year. Rotterdam training pushed the mileage up at the start of the year.

curtisbrown · 10-08-2018 8:46am

Hit 2000 last night...

If it's not on the table it didn't happen!

ArtieFufkin · 14-08-2018 5:42pm

Hit 3000 miles today after a b2b, 2x40km run in the mountains of Catalonia. Running doesn't get much better than that!

RayCun · 22-08-2018 9:51pm

Reached 2000 miles today on a longish midweek run

ariana` · 26-08-2018 2:30pm

Hit 1000 miles on Friday night. Hit it last year on December 31st so thrilled to have hit it over 4 months earlier this year

Well done. Nearly there too.

Aybara · 26-08-2018 8:37pm

Passed through 1000 miles today, first time to log 1000 miles in a year on attempt 3. Usually around the 800 miles per year but putting in extra effort in 2018.

opus · 27-08-2018 11:39am

Passed the 2000 barrier last week, I've only ever made 3000 once (barely!) but tbh not really chasing that number.

aquinn · 30-08-2018 9:45am

I DID it!

I never thought I would.

Currently at 1,015.0 miles for the year.

Very proud of myself for achieving that.

I was on 999.1 after Sunday's long run so hit in on the way to the club on Tuesday.

DubOnHoliday · 07-09-2018 5:28pm

Passed 1000 miles during a 26k run today, week 10 of training for my first marathon, DCM.

Kellygirl · 07-09-2018 5:34pm

Just realized I never updated here. Passed my 1000 miles during my long run last Saturday so the 1st September. A big improvement on just before New Years Eve last year.

AuldManKing · 12-09-2018 9:54am

Passed 2000m in the PP on Friday 7th Sept - ahead of last year, but not chasing miles.

robinph · 12-09-2018 4:09pm

Just realised that I passed the 1000 mile mark a few weeks ago as I was running along the bottom of some German and French 1st World War trenches along the top of a mountain in France. :eek:

Somehow I managed to get over the 1000m mark a couple of weeks earlier than last year as well despite missing a month of doing any running at all and a good few other weeks of limited mileage.

ReeReeG · 16-09-2018 3:40pm

Hit the 1000 mile mark in my long run this morning :D

Nuttzz · 01-10-2018 10:03pm

after 3 years I've finally hit 1000 miles in a year, and I still have 91 days left

skyblue46 · 11-10-2018 5:55pm

Hit 2000 miles on my run today. Last year I hit 1000 during DCM

I'll chalk that one down...first and last time I'll beat you to anything :pac:

You'll beat me to a 3.15 marathon

Oh so you're not running one next year either? That means I'll beat you to a 3:25 this year as well

Congrats S, that is some progression in the year and a testament to your consistency and also to your careful attention to the intensity of those miles that despite over a 100% increase in mileage you haven't been injured in that time.

Passed 2k yesterday on a plod around the city centre.

Cumulative yearly progression (in KMs) according to the StravistiX plugin below - no surprise that this year has been a PB-free zone
