jelly (limegreenjelly) Sep 2021 10:06am, 28 Sep 2021 1,411 posts	0 jelly (limegreenjelly) 49 miles a week would see me at 3650 75 miles a week for 4,000 I’m not sure what I’m doing really! Still running every day with a marathon once a week. I’ve also started a new job working part time 12 hour nights so I need to fit in around work too! How’s everyone else doing, it’s nearly the end of the month?

Oscar the Grouch Sep 2021 10:14am, 28 Sep 2021 3,588 posts	0 Oscar the Grouch Well done, Jelly. That's a lot of miles!! 114 miles left for the 2,000 for me. (Just checking out the tech, kids). I probably would have got there this month but illness and injury has meant only 100 miles so far this month. All being well, I should get there around the middle of October which is WAAAAAY ahead of where I expected to be. 2000 miles has been my highest mileage years so this was unexpected
Big_G Sep 2021 10:22am, 28 Sep 2021 1,110 posts	0 Big_G I have had a good month in terms of racing as I managed to PB at Half and 10K distances, so I was very pleased with those. I also went around New Forest Marathon on the weekend, which was my 90th marathon, so into the 'nervous nineties' now, and need to start thinking a bit about the 100th. It was a trail race, and although I don't love trails it was a good event. Anyway, New Forest had a running festival going, with camping, live music and a range of different distances over the weekend so OH and I had a great time up there (although the 110-mile journey from Devon took 3.5hrs on the way up!). In terms of this mileage challenge, I am still a bit behind, but I can still catch up. I have been behind since early in the the year, as February was a more or less a write off for me in terms of running (I fell and suffered mild concussion).
