I recently read a post by RJR in which he mentioned his goal for yearly milage. I'd always been into tracking my weekly mileage, but RJR's post made me wonder where I stood for the year.
A quick check on my trusty log at RunningAhead.com today showed me at 1851 miles. This puts the 2000 mark well within reach. I wouldn't have to run any more than I have been lately. All I would have to do is not slack off (at all) for the holidays. That will be a bit of a logistical challenge. I hate to get crazy about chasing a milage number, but 2000 is such a nice round number -- I've got to at least try. Right?
Uh oh... I just though of something.... what about.... 2009 miles for year 2009? Or, 2010 miles to ring in the new year? Each year I'd have to run one more mile....

Haha...I did the same thing yesterday! I need 100 miles this month to reach 2009 too! Let's make a pact...no slacking until we get there!
It's crazy to me how multiple people in our club reached this goal way back in August and September...
Alright Lammy, it's a pact!
I'm glad it didn't occur to me back in August though. I would have driven myself crazy...
Nice! Good luck with the 2000. I remember in "Run For Your Life" they mention that Fred Lebow ended up running like 20 miles one New Year's Eve because he was at 1980. (The numbers might be a bit off, but that was the gist of it.)
