Strava 1000 mile challenge

just join this challenge,
Just for fun really, and to keep check off my goals,

Anyone else up for it?

 

My wife did a 2 mile run on December 31st to complete 1000 miles for 2017.

I might give it a try this year.

 

Excellent ,good on her.

I think that's the whole point for me.

It's not about who can complete 1000 miles first.
It's about doing it, a year is a long time, and anything can happen, doing this challenge is about being focus as I've got no other goals this year, mainly because I work most weekends.

 

Crivens! That’s nearly 20 miles a week!

Gulp!

 

Come @carlp we can do it

 

What's this WE ? You must be barmy if you think I could do it!

 

‘spose it could be doable, I’ve run 17.3 miles in the last 7 days.

Nah. To much commitment for me.

 

1000 miles is a really nice yearly running goal - its a good round number and achievable by most people providing they're consistently doing 4 runs a week most weeks.

 

Strava also do a 1000 km challenge.

 

I’ve done 11 miles since New Year’s Day and have a 10 mile trail race tomorrow so on track...... for the moment anyway

 

Unfortunately I’ve fell short of my target, 18.5 miles total for this week 1.
But feeling positive about this challenge.

 

Busy week so didn’t get out as much as planned.

Still, 14 days in and 64km, or 39.8 miles, done so not far off schedule. Not sure I’ll keep up this pace though when marathon training stops

 

I can't even see me managing 1000km this year. 11km so far this year

 

Not one for any of the challenges on Strava but I was planning on completing the 1000 miles last year, but at the end of August with about 660 miles done I got hit with issues in my Achilles which put me off out of action for a month. Just after just getting back into it in mid Sept when I ended up in the local cardiac care ward with a heart attack, got myself stented and started on my rehab and finished the year on 767 miles.

Must do better this year....
