2019 - 1000 mile challenge - 10 years running

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

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

Congrats B. What app is that?

1000 miles completed yesterday, one month and one day later than last year. I didn't manage to break my 5 and 10K pbs last year (I did try once or twice with both) but managed to take a decent chunk off both this year so despite the slightly less mileage the outcomes have not been too bad so far.

Well done! More quality despite less quantity or some other reason(s) do you think?

Thanks! Few different reasons I think, more a focus on different (mainly shorter) distances. No marathon in the first half of the year so focused on the 5/10K stuff for a change. Did some interval work in the darker months earlier in the year, so whilst the mileage was down doing that the effort was much harder on those I felt. Raced 800m on track (once indoor, twice indoor) as well coming off the back of that stuff too. Into marathon stuff now but training to run it with my wife for her first on DCM day. Tried to run a bit more with other people and that often seems to end up in shorter training runs but more enjoyable than plodding out marathon miles on my own. Change is as good as a rest sometimes...next year will be something different again (house building at the moment so just tipping away until that's done).

Tootled over the 1000 mile mark during the week.
After a summer on the swimbikerun dark side it's back to the serious business and my yearly last ever sub 3 attempt.
Roll on Manchester 2020

I reached 1,000 miles this morning. It is my first time to ever run a thousand miles within a year; I'm so happy that I finally get to write this post.

2000 miles passed today during this new form of torture that I've discovered (think it's called intervals) on the Sonia O'Sullivan running track.

Reached 1000 miles today for the first time ever. All going well, I will have more than doubled last year's total by the end of the year.

By some miracle I just passed 2000 miles for the year despite some setbacks.

Just heading back out tonight after 3 weeks with Chest infection which is a pity as I was well ahead of target.
42 miles to do between now and the new year to reach the 1000, it's going to be a stretch to say the least.

7 to 8k every two days and you’re there. Good luck.

Passed 3000 miles yesterday, beating my previous record of 2937 set in 2017.

Celebrating with a day off today :pac:

The day is long yet....


Well done on the landmark B!

This morning’s run leaves me on 2,999 kms. Supposed to be a double day but don’t think I’ll get out later. Oh well. Always preferred prime numbers anyway.

4803km for me. didn't bother today

Passed 1000miles on New years eve.
