Thanks Time2Run! Last year I came over to runningahead from coolrunning (along with lots of other folks). This is a great site. I noticed these user groups and thought that I might get some benefit by having a goal like 621 miles. Last year I hit 500 miles in the whole year I turned 50 so I thought that 621 miles would be a challenge and a great goal. Well, I guess the thought of the bunny beating me was too hard to take. Either that or my math is bad which actually sounds closer to the truth. I really don't know whether its the bunny that did it, but I am very surprised that I hit it so early and that I am enjoying running even more now that I'm doing the longer distances. I feel bad in a way that I got here so early, that certainly wasn't my intent at the beginning of the year. Nonetheless, I'm here and I'm happy! Keep running! Ruth

Congratulations! I can't remember where I read it, but it was an article that talked about rather making excuses not to run than you make excuses too run! I think the forums and clubs and the blogging helps me make those excuses. It gives me another reason to keep going, talking and planning my running. 621 is a good goal! Not impossible, but not easy. You have to run every week. 1000 miles! That's a challenge! I hope to see you there too. Good luck to you and Congrats again! Karl
