I see a few folks quietly crossed 1,500 miles recently without so much as a peep. Take a bow. You know who you are. And, a few others getting pretty close. Wondering - will YOU make the jump to the 2,000 Mile Club next year? Almost 39 miles a week. Week in, week out. Not for the faint of heart, or weak-kneed. Plus, they're a bunch of boobs on that board from what I understand...

I need to run 3+ miles a day for the next 37 days to make it. (5.5k per day) ---- and now that I am back from injury rest and feeling great...I just might do it!

Ya, I thought I'd make the jump too. Staying consistent and injury free will be key. It will be nice to see a few familiar faces on the new boards come Jan. 1! Congrats everyone who's already at 1,500 and those getting close.

Hey I hit 1500 too. Sheesh. 2000 next year for sure. Going to shoot for over 2000 running and 2000 on the bike. We'll see how that works out.

I had every expectation to break 1000 but never thought I had a shot at 1500. I still dont think I do because I need to run 251.8 miles in the next 36 days which equals an average of just about 7 miles per day without any rest from here on out... Dead

UGH!

..... Only time will tell..... Roll eyes

Thanks!

I was hoping to hit 2000, but 2 weeks off due to injury later in the year has kept me off of that. I should break 1900 though. Maybe I'll go for 2500 next year.

Nice work, Arne. What are your race plans through the winter? Any chance you'll run any of: - Boxing Day 10 miler, Hamilton (12/26) - Chilly HM, Burlington (3/2) - Around the Bay, Hamilton (3/30)?

I dont know, I have this insane obsession with Boston. I WANT to Q so badly. But the seasons snow and ice might slow my training down. The weather stopped my long run this weekend as you probably noticed yourself in your own neighbourhood. If all goes well I will yet again aim for a BQ time in February in "last chance for Boston" Colubus Ohio. I might put in a BAY but I also have to let people cut me open this spring (Hernia). I have to make up my mind sometime in January I guess. This is also the time of year where there is a giant conspiracy on to make me fat again! How about you?? are you going to do them all or just one or two? Cheers Arne
