Congratulations, Nick! You were and continue to be an inspiration in consistency to many of us who date back to the old Coolrunning days.
Keep up the good work!

Nick - So wonderful to see you here - it has been a while since you've posted. You are such an inspiration to so many of us! You are absolutely right - there is no finish line.
TRUST THE PROCESS
Congrats, Nick. 75,000 is monster.
Stay around, miss you posting.
You always have a solid, long-term thinking message, and one that you prove works, as shown
by your longevity.
Keep going!

That there is a lot of miles. I saw this on the back of a shirt at a race once- "Start slow and taper."
MTA - I first logged miles back on Cool Running.

You know you're going to ruin your knees.
The tangents are moot.
Congratulations, Nick!
Is it my imagination, or do I recall you posting about passing 50,000 in Coolrunning, maybe 2004-2005? I can almost remember the text of the post -- something like "what a way to mention that I've now run 50,000 miles". If not you, it was someone else.

Wow--25,000 miles in 6 to 8 years then, at the age of 68! Incredible!
That is some consistency. Hope I am still rolling 30 years from now. Cheers!

Awesome Nick and really good to see you again. Your advice was some of the best given over at Cool Running. After being here a while, it's the same good advice. Go mostly easy, sometimes hard.
You're an inspiration, particularly to some of us older kids.
Long may you run.
Amazing, Nick! I, too, remember you from the CoolRunning days. You are truly an inspiration.
Um . . . do the squirrels talk back???

Congrats Nick, thanks to your sage advice on the old Cool Running site I have stayed away from the "I used to run Club" and like you enjoy my miles more than ever!

My thoughts exactly. Nick made me slow down, which has made me be able to keep going. The rest of youse have taught me how to improve without making too many stupid mistakes.
