Good Job Tuff, been waiting for you to reach the finish line. We seemed to push each other for a while there, or at least till you had to taper, and recover from your marathon. Good job agian on the 1500 miles. Brad

Thanks all. Admittedly, I've been slacking a bit since Oct, but with 3 races lined up already it's time to knock the rust off and get at 'er... It's been fun chasing each other up and down the ladder this year. Certainly provided added motivation for me. Particularly runpd (aka Brad), my virtual running nemesis Wink

. Maybe we can settle this in the 2000 Club next year?

Welcome to the finnishers club TUF, congrats!! Belive me! I am not joining the 2000 club next year, 1500 was hard enough, so I will stay put. Right now motivation and climate has formed a formidable coalition to slow down any serious attempts at long runs! Cheers ArneParne Big grin

I thought my run at 2000 would be successful but injury time at the beginning of the year and various weeks off for one reason or another kept me under the goal. Oh well. Great job everyone!

Congrats to everyone who has crossed over the finish line!

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

I'm joining a bunch of pace groups, because I'm so wild and unpredictable (to myself, that is). Smile

Speed my steps along your path, according to your will.

Heck yes stringsn88keys! Nevermind that you slept in (7:20 AM start) before adding 13.1 miles this morning to cross the 1500 line that taught me the lesson that I will not run more miles than you this year. Smile

I'll see you next year in the 2000 club.

I finally hit 1500 today as well! With 2 days to spare I can recover for the rest of the years and get ready for a New Years day 10 miler. Here's to next year and 1,750? sub 3:30 marathon? Lots of goals to think about but I can rest on that 1500 for a while.
