Here we go then for 2016. The best run thread on Fetch apart from the previous 1500 mile threads of course.

Before I carry on, please get the 1500 miles in 2015 over 1,000 pages as it's the very least we can do for our leader Neilio.

I've set the 2016 group up so please join. The link will be on the right hand side (I hope).

Regulars and new arrivals are all welcome on board the 1500 mile cake train.

Let us know your targets for 2016. Is your target mileage volume, hunting down PB's or volume of races?

My personal goals are a sub 3:15 marathon, a HM PB and a sub 40 min 10k. What are your goals? Please share.

We're also going to pass around a monkey gorilla this year but that's alright it's the 1500 thread.

All the best, in advance, to every contributor to this thread luck

Let's do this.

Silent Night Neilio
Morning folks.
Cheers Christmasman,I'm in.
Targets for 2016 are to get back to 2015 fitness levels,stay injured and see where we go.
Also to get Mrs Neilio to run a Parkrun (Her target) and Miss Neilio 10k fit (Her target).
Sharing the love so to speak.
Oh,and also to spend more time on ukulele practice and less time at work. :)
Can't wait :)

I'm in :)

Very similar goals to Huntsman but I'd prioritise a sub-90 HM over sub-3:15 Mara (I'll be delighted with a sub-3:20 marathon). All with an aim of getting myself a VLM champs start qualifier for 2017 - so I have in effect until this time next year. Plus to get to 100 parkruns (@72 currently).

Thanks for picking up the reigns Hunts :)
