I made it last year and 2015 was looking ok (11/12 months with 100 miles hit), until things got busy during the run-up to Christmas, and then I got ill... So last Saturday, I realised that I had only 50 logged for all of December, with 6 days left for the month. Uh-oh. The head-torch batteries have taken a hammering, but six miles on Saturday has been followed by ten miles for the last four days - it's been hard work making the time for that and my legs are complaining too. Now looking at 97 miles for the month and knowing that I will be getting out after lunch. Quite sure I'd never have done this without having a 100 a month target to aim for.

steve45 Dec 2015 12:32pm, 31 Dec 2015 471 posts	Quote Pin steve45 go for it Andy! Have done my last for the year and finished with 108. Did a check on the number of hours running after reading someone else's hours here...221 .5 hours. Overall an average pace of only (about) 10.50 per mile. If I was able to run faster (which I can't!!) and average say 8 minute miling (like loads of the Fetchies) I would put in an hour less running per week--or to put it into "days run" I could take an extra rest day! Well run everyone who is clocking the 100!
