I'm just below the line, but not sure if I will make it over. I'm back to fitness but following a plan now so not trying to do many extra sessions.

Yep well and truly stalled Chris! The target had been looking quite comfortable for some time. My wife's birthday was promptly followed by a heavy cold combined with a very intense period at work, both of which haven't really relented yet. Well the cold is easing but still lingering.
Zero miles last week, can't remember the last time that happened! Taken me by surprise how quickly the surplus has fallen away!!
But starting to get back now. A lot of travelling over the Xmas period but hopefully I can squeeze in the 63 (or 81) miles needed!

It's only an arbitrary number CW, to be close is just as much of an achievement as hitting it really.

I'm a long way back (Still 130 odd to go), but sticking to plan I'll just make it on the 30th/31st. Any significant spell of ice and I'm done for, but that's what happens when you have no motivation for 3 months...

SM6, that's impressive. If CW follows your plan we'll have 20 across the line in 2000 (barring no major setbacks). Did 15 today myself, now 36 to go, it feels much more like the home straight.

2 weeks to go, and depending on where I look I've either 113 (here) or 108 miles (the orange site) to go. I actually suspect I'm already over 1900 but can't be arsed seeing where I'm off, I just try to run the 113 miles. Lucky I have 18 planned on NYE!

That other site actually has me 29 miles less than here. Can't figure out where the difference is but I'm going by whats in my log here!

I have 12 miles left to do... so I think I'll be over the line by Xmas, as that's just 2 more runs (not planning on one long one).

SM6 you still on target? No ice forecast I think, but plenty of rain...

Chrisull - For various reasons I've only ran twice in the last 6 days. So, going on the higher estimate from the orange site, I need to run 11.5 miles a day. Incredibly unlikely, as it'll probably ruin January. If I'm over 1970 by late morning on Sunday I might get creative, but I'm probably going to fall ~20 short.
