Muttley Jan 2021 8:56pm, 8 Jan 2021 992 posts	Quote Pin Muttley I'm aiming for 36,501 by year-end, or an average of 100 a day.

Nellers Jan 2021 9:12pm, 8 Jan 2021 37,944 posts	Quote Pin Nellers 5001 is 13.7 per day I think, but holding that position 3/10ths up overnight to finish off the next day tends to be problematic GM. 14 is easier.

First he sunk the ultra I was supposed to be doing on 2nd Jan which meant I didn't taper in December and went chasing the 100K for 2020. That built up a head of steam and by the end of the month 3500-4000 a week had become the norm. That set me thinking about how quick I do the 5001. I decided to aim for 7 days but also to celebrate the NY with a 1000 on Day 1. Having done the 1000 and already being dumped in T4 I decided that a proper target was 6 days. The move to lockdown just made that the right decision (not able to go to the mountains or play golf I need something in addition to running to vent my frustration on). Got there with about 10 hours to spare on Day 6. Not sure what the new target is but 800 (until Jan 1st 700 in a day was my pb) seems to have become new norm and helps keep me out of mischief.
