I hit my goal late last month. It was the same mileage goal I used in 2020, when I hit the goal on December 29.

Same. And if I run my annual weekly mileage for the rest of the year, I will top last year's total. But that's unlikely to happen, since I just ran a marathon last weekend and will be in recovery mode for a while. Still, I'm pretty happy coming this close, considering last year's total was 430 miles more than I had ever run before. This year showed that was not a fluke. So the year's gone pretty well, with the benefit vs last year of being able to run two marathons. The first one I tanked - blew up after mile 18 to finish with a large positive split and a disappointing time. But turned that around last weekend at CIM - started conservatively and finished with a huge negative split, to come within 17 seconds of PR. A good way to wrap up the year.

Congratulations that’s huge.
OK, I got there today, at mile 4 into my run. Last year I had the same exact goal and I hit it in like October or something and ended up being 20% over for the year. The main reason was: no races last year, so no need to taper or to recover. Don't know about you, everyone is different, but for me races are definitely volume killers. I just cannot have it both ways. I guess that's one way to increase my total mileage, just stop signing up for races :-)))

I will hit my goal some times next week. Only 69 miles more to hit 3100. Not my biggest year. But I am running faster this year. I ran 2 of my fastest mountain 100's this year. I can't wait for what next year brings.

I hit my goal of 2200 miles last week. As it turned out, it was also my last week of competition with my fellow team members in Run Together.

Done! Still have a ride left to hit my cycling goal, but that should happen the day after Christmas.
Off to clean house!

Hit my goal today. Woot woot!
Trails Rock!
Hit my 1500 miles on Christmas morning!
Congrats!
I hit my goal of 2,875 during the last week of the playoffs. Today I logged 2,996. So will break 3,000 this year. Working from home has been such a time saver for me over the past two years.
Congratulations!!! I hit 1500 last week and was soooooo happy!!! My goal which I foolishly upped in June then promptly went on IR was 2222. When I came off IR I decided 1500 would be a stretch, and am very happy I got there.
Love the game! Thank you so much for managing it every year. It wouldn't be the same without you!
I reached my goal of 3450 miles for the year today. This was my biggest mileage year yet, beating last year by over 200 miles. Nice work to everyone else completing their goals. Happy New Year everyone!
I'm taking a break from the mileage game next year, but will still be here logging miles. Good luck all!

This morning I broke the 1k mile mark, my goal. 3 injuries during the year kept me trailing the pace bunny until literally the very end.
I feel good physically, but I think I am going to use 2022 to lose weight through diet. I plan to run less at the beginning of the year, so I'm not going to enter the 2022 game. See you around!
